THE CLANCY CASE AND THE CHURCHIANS

        Every so often, usually when the Political Class and their Corporate Overlords desperately need a distraction, the Legal Establishment, the Media Cartels, and a few cheap political ward-heelers get together and decide that we are due for another Trial of the Century. These spectacles are typically like the Super Bowl, election campaigns, and the latest Hollywood Blockbuster: all bigger, better---and most importantly of all---more profitable than the previous one. 

       One would assume during this month, that we'd be talking about the trial around the murder of slain activist Charlie Kirk, which has taken a year already with no resolution. The Elites apparently decided that there's already too much controversy over that case; and, if the recent FOIA Request by some social media personalities are accurate, it would appear that FBI Director Kash Patel is busy hunting down Internet trolls who are making fun of him. 

           In fairness to Kash Patel, however, we can't help but observe that his priorities are about the same as millions of other Americans who'd rather not think about minor issues like the disastrous wars in the Middle East and Ukraine; or the massive wealth-transfers and power-grabs being carried out by the Deep State; or the rapid and continual decline of both our physical and social infrastructure; etc. No: what has every American's attention riveted comes from Massachusetts. We speak, of course, of the Lindsay Clancy Case.

        The Clancy Case ended this week with a mistrial; which will allow the lawyers and media figures to milk the tragic murder of three children for more dollars and notoriety. The deliberate politicization and monetizing of this case has led to furious online discussions. There's even a split among the New Right on this issue. The Alpha Red Pilled Cult is highlighting the case to bolster their theories about inherent female depravity; while others have synced with the Whacko Left demanding that the case is a test case on the alleged epidemic of Post-Partum Depression. 

       Neither position should be surprising: we're not dealing with Conservatives here---we're talking about Left-Wing Reactionaries. The Alphas represent the Radical Feminist position, embracing the stereotypes of masculinity that the Feminists draw and claim them as a badge of honor. People who look up to characters like Andrew Tate and Elon Musk as role models aren't likely to have worldview premised on the sanctity of womanhood. At the other pole are mostly MAGA Churchian women of the sort who fought to overturn abortion bans after Roe vs. Wade was nullified. These women already can't fawn over the Trump Administration hard enough: applauding them even when they bomb schools abroad and drag kids away in chains to be deported to hellish Concentration Camps at home; so, obviously, the deaths of three innocent children won't bother them too much. 

       Let us suppose, however, that there really is an epidemic of Post-Partum Depression going on in America; and there really are millions of mothers so affected. How many end by murdering their children? Of course, interested news outlets catapult any such case to the headlines now that the issue sells; but even those rare cases illustrate that most mothers seem to be coping with the existing system without resorting to homicide.

        Another question that should be asked are about things like why the United States has fallen to 54th place globally in Infant Mortality Rates, which is near the bottom of developed nations. We might also inquire why we rank 65th globally in women who die in childbirth; also near the bottom of developed nations. Or we might ask why almost 1 in 7 American women of child-bearing age are clinically infertile? 

        But asking questions like these wouldn't serve the purposes of the interest-groups promoting the Clancy Case, and most of the so-called Christian Right doesn't seem too concerned about them either. That would also mean facing real problems that we as a Culture would have address; but most Americans prefer to trust the experts and put their own heads in the sand.

NATALIE HARP

          This morning I happened to catch a really good interview on Daniel Davis' podcast with retired White House official Lawrence Wilkerson. Davis, we might recall, was nominated by Tulsi Gabbard to serve as Deputy Director of National Intelligence, but was blackballed by Zionist and Christian Nationalist factions within the Administration for insufficient loyalty to Israel. The whole interview is about an hour long and covered many topics; but Wilkerson's most important point begins at the 27:53 mark. So far, Wilkerson alone among major pundits (so far) has figured out that the New Right and the Deep State plan to stage a domestic crackdown and retrenchment in the Western Hemisphere in the wake of the Foreign Policy disasters. 

         Most Americans prefer to remain willfully ignorant of these machinations, which we have been pointing out for some time. Wilkerson, of course, has sources from inside these agencies; we here have drawn the same conclusions from the Elites' own statements and publicly-published policies. However, as we saw during the Scamdemic, Martial Law, power-grabs, and wealth-transfers don't concern most Americans too much. The Elites had the prudence back then not to close the legal marijuana stores or turn off the adult websites, so most Americans were content to stay under curfews, don their masks, take their Loyalty Vaxxes, etc. They won't behave any differently if what Wilkerson suggests come to pass.

        As proof of this, the major news story this week has little to do with any of the above-mentioned domestic issues, or the geopolitical scene abroad that is collapsing rapidly. There is a far, far, far more important issue absolutely capturing Ameroboob attention, focusing on a White House Staffer named Natalie Harp.

           Now, most Americans hadn't heard of Ms. Natalie until a few weeks ago when it was revealed that she was part of the entourage who slipped off Air Force One during the disgraceful escape from the NATO Summit. Basically what she does at the White House is roughly equivalent to a "Girl Friday" or top secretary who are somewhat common (or used to be) in most large offices. She's 35 years old, and, to be honest, is really nothing more than a teenage groupie who never grew out of that stage. To be equally fair, there's no shortage of MAGA women who are of the same description.

          Natalie is reasonably attractive for her age, and she's always in close proximity to President Trump who is much older. This mere fact alone was enough to trigger a flurry of salacious gossip and innuendo from the Incels, Male Feminists, and homosexuals (both closeted and otherwise) among the Controlled Opposition and their flying monkeys in the Corporate Media. This naturally drew responses from their doppelgangers on the New Right.

        We won't go into any of these vulgar accusations here. I'm not related to any of these people and if any of these allegations are true, I think that Melania is more than able to deal with such things if what I've heard about Eastern European women has any veracity. These 'controversies' really speak to the low level of American Culture in the 21st Century; as well as the degree to which sexual repression dominates it. Since the 1990s, when we saw Hilary Clinton and her Lesbian cohorts initiate the so-called Gender Wars, Political Correctness in human sexuality has reached the state of outright paranoia. A whole generation has been indoctrinated with this garbage.

        I must confess that I do find this phenomenon an interesting Sociological study. This is a major cultural shift that has happened during my lifetime. True, Postmodern Americans are extremely easily manipulated and prone to mass panic attacks over the most inconsequential issues; but human sexuality and gender polarity are hardwired into our instinctual psychology. Outside of psychopathic regimes like the Cambodian Khmer Rouge was, there's really no historical parallel for it and even in Cambodia it was imposed by a totalitarian government with little popular support. Even during the European Middle Ages, the Church encouraged sexual purity, but that had more to do with enforcing the sanctity of marriage than outright Sex Negativity. 

       Psychology long has known that the pathology of sexual repression in the individual leads to overt aggression---either against the self or others whom the afflicted projects his neurosis. The novelty in the postmodern English-speaking world is that the pathology has become a collective neurosis. Since a society is a collective of individuals, we'd have to conclude from this that sexual neurosis is a widespread condition. 

       Because there is no historical precedent for a society at this stage of degeneration, the outcome for a society in this state necessarily is theoretical It isn't researched today because it has become a Third Rail Topic: an issue that certain interest groups would prefer never be discussed. In 1978, we have a glimpse of the psychodynamics involved by a writer who predicted much of our cultural decline who stated this:

       "Late 20th Century peoples have erected so many psychological barriers against strong emotion, and have invested those defenses with so much of the energy derived from forbidden impulse, that they can no longer remember what it feels like to be inundated by desire. They tend, rather, to be consumed with rage, which derives from defenses against desire and gives rise in turn to new defenses against rage itself. Outwardly bland, submissive, and sociable,  they seethe with an inner anger for which a dense, overpopulated, bureaucratic society can find few legitimate outlets."

      In this author's day, he was describing a growing societal trend which has grown today to a mainstream condition. His last sentence explains why our culture has grown so tolerant of homosexuality and other perversions while repressing natural sexual relations: the social engineers have legitimized the Gay Lifestyle as a politically-correct outlet for all of this suppressed libido. By the same token, all of this repressed rage also can be channeled by the Elites into political aggression on behalf of an authoritarian regime. He continues:

      "The growth of bureaucracy (note: both governmental and corporate) creates an intricate network of personal relations, puts a premium on social skills, and makes the unbridled individualism of the 'American Adam' untenable." (Note: which explains why these 'return to tradition' movements on the Right are bound to fail, if applied literally. Most such movements are superficial in the extreme, and hold fast to cultural sexual repression in various 'traditional' guises). "Yet at the same time it erodes all forms of patriarchal authority and thus weakens the social superego, formerly represented by fathers, teachers, and priests. The decline of institutionalized authority in an ostensibly permissive society does not, however, lead to a 'decline of the superego' in individuals. It encourages instead the development of a harsh, punitive superego that derives most of its psychic energy, in the absence of these paternal authorities, from the destructive, aggressive impulses within the id. Unconscious irrational elements in the superego come to dominate its operation."

        We see in this depiction why these outbreaks of sexual hysteria are not simply a strange social quirk, but a pathological symptom of a deeply broken society. This also explains why even minor allegations of 'sexual misconduct' are treated with an uncontrollable (and irrational) rage in our culture. What we're basically seeing is the same intense jealousy that we see in prepubescent boys at men who are successful with the women they desire. From the other side, women are taught that all men are predators and rapists by nature and this brings to their minds the prepubescent childhood fears of being attacked by unknown men. Into this void steps the Gay Mafia who tells them that their primordial fears are justified.

        So, when we see these outbreaks of anti-sexual hysteria, know that it comes from interested social engineers playing upon the undeveloped or repressed fears and envy being weaponized against healthy and natural sexuality. Make no mistake: this type of propaganda is deliberately inculcated for those very purposes. 

       

THE CLANCY TRIAL AND TRASH CULTURE WRIT LARGE

        So, in the last week the United States continues its descent into accelerated cultural decline. With Trade Wars and shooting-wars breaking out all over the place; the Police/Surveillance State ramping up to full speed; atomic war being discussed seriously; and the wealth-transfers continue flying up the chimney to the Globalist Elites---American Social and Entertainment Media is focusing on one of the things that unite the American Public's attention: sensational trials with political overtones. 

      Even though our Constitution (which was written by Dead White Males whom everyone ignores these days) guarantees "the Right to a Speedy and Public Trial," a murder that took place in 2023 is finally being tried. The sluggishness of our so-called 'Justice System' should be a topic of discussion in and of itself; but our Founding Fathers lived in a day and age before Trial-by-Mass-Media, and a heavily corrupted and commercially-driven Legal System. 

     We're speaking of course of the Lindsay Clancy Case, which we wrote about the time that it happened: it was a cause celebre among the Whacko Left and everyone else who could cash in either politically or economically. Forgetting about the three children who were murdered, the Left brought out the Victim Cards for the mother/murderer. We also did a follow-up on the father involved, who also played Victim Card and has come out with a tidy profit of his own. He's since remarried and both he and Lindsay Clancy have pending lawsuits against the State. During the three years which have passed, everybody involved is cashing in even more: lawyers, media, the families, politicians, Big Pharma: but that's not where the controversy lies.

      In a Culture where Abortion is considered a fundamental Human Right, homos are allowed to adopt children, public schools are hellscapes and Genocide is considered legitimate Foreign Policy it's not surprising that the murdered children would be the last thing on Americans' minds. No: instead, this case has become a political football, with one side using it to support or attack Big Pharma; and another using it to support or attack Radical Feminism. 

        There's something radically wrong with a Society when the first reaction to the murder of three children is "how do we capitalize on this?" We excoriate our Leaders for never letting a good crisis go to waste, but the Clancy Case is an example of the kind of moral societal compass in today's America that brings such creatures to positions of power. Our System is failing because those leading it---both the Political Class and the Oligarchy who owns them---are actually representatives of a failed Culture. The Elites, of course, make it worse by encouraging social division and degeneration. Our Culture, in turn, becomes a negative feedback loop: those who are most repelled by cultural corruption are those most capable of fighting it; but the interests of the corrupt Elites prevents such people from assuming any position of effecting meaningful change.

         

         

WOKE GOP CAVES ON IMMIGRATION AND NATIONAL SERVICE

        Never fear, loyal Republican voters! The now-woke GOP at long last has been addressing the now obvious problems with demographics, specifically those of our youth and educational issues. Besides taking up some very progressive positions on hate speech and co-opting Cancel Culture to replace the Left-Wing agenda in education with their own propaganda organs. None of this will do anything whatsoever to solve the current crisis, but it makes for good clickbait and online flame-wars.

     This week our illustrious Congress passed a Bill mandating draft registration and, to be Politically-Correct, this new proposal would include women for the first time ever. The Neocons have been playing footsie with this idea for a long time. With Republican collusion, the Clinton Co-Presidency began attacking the Culture of Toxic Masculinity in the Pentagon starting circa 1992 and began shoehorning more women into military positions. For awhile in the 1990s, some Republicans protested this to the point where Bush Jr. promised to reverse these policies during the 2000 Election. Bush promptly reneged on the promise; in fact his Administration exceeded even the Clintons in promoting Feminist takeovers of traditionally male positions and it hasn't been an issue among 'Conservative' politicians since. 

    Mandatory National Public Service will be the next step, of course. The concept has been applied in Totalitarian Regimes historically and has been a dream of kindred spirits of these governments here too for a long time. Many public schools have had a mandated 'community service' requirement for graduation (just like jails); and 'Conservatives' have never had any major objection to it. Given the increasingly authoritarian bent of the postmodern American Right, and their general feeling that any problem can be solved with a bludgeon, the idea is appealing to a certain type. Most Millennials and younger are prime candidates for such a program; young Americans today have been conditioned very extensively towards fatalistically accepting authority.

    Of course, due to the influence of certain ethnic groups (because Conservatives don't believe in reverse discrimination), those with 'dual-nationalities' are exempt from mandatory registration. So are immigrants on H1B work visas. Just coincidentally, the Trump Campaign yesterday clarified its position on H1B visas.

     Frankly, I'm not certain why any foreign graduate would want to stay here when going back to their home country radically increases their chances of actually finding meaningful work; but we digress. Trump has already made promises to expand the Police State exponentially to round up and deport migrant workers whom the Conservative-Industrial Complex are convinced are 'invading' the country; but foreign lobbyists and workers useful to Wall Street get a free pass. Big Tech is one of the major beneficiaries of the H1B Program, and we're certain that Trump's evolved position on the issue and the fat donation he got from a billionaire bankster who gives loans to Big Tech yesterday was also just coincidental timing. 

    Speaking for myself, my idea of Making America Great Again doesn't see the Bush Years as the benchmark of American greatness. In fact, the Bush Machine/Neocon hijacking of the Conservative Movement after Reagan's reforms reversed all of our positive gains and accelerated our decline. Yet, this is where the Postmodern Right---which is really nowadays nothing more than the reactionary Left---wants to take us. 

    

US AT BOTTOM (AGAIN) IN MATERNAL MORTALITY RATES

     Here in the Prozac Nation, outbreaks of mass-insanity are becoming increasingly common, as they historically do when a society is breaking down. These outbursts usually manifest themselves around some controversial issue which wouldn't even be a matter of debate in a sane society, while underlying or more serious issues get ignored but these absurdities are always dignified with some high-sounding stock phrase to give the illusion of importance.

    Last week, for example, the rage was all about the Donald Trump and Hunter Biden trials while the whole issue of egregious dysfunction in our Legal System was swept under the rug. This week, women's issues have resurfaced, the controversy surrounding two (so far) beauty pageants 'won' by contestants who---to put it mildly---weren't quite what we'd normally expect. The decisions obviously were made to incite controversy a make a statement because no rational person would justify either of them in any other way. 

   The State of Maryland decided that Gender Dysphoria was a positive role model for girls; while the State of Alabama stressed Morbid Obesity as a desirable feminine goal. Actually, I'm not sure why any young woman would want to participate in these events after these clown-shows, but outlets for positive femininity are becoming about as closed as their masculine counterparts these days. It's a common misconception in the Manosphere that women are valued more than men in our society, but this is an illusion based on a faulty perspective. Women are worth nothing in our society: men are worth less than nothing and this actually is the only difference. 

    As proof of this, let's look at a story which went ignored behind all of the online flame-wars, gender-bending, and general stupidity. For the third straight year, the US retains last place among developed nations in its maternal mortality rate. In fact, the percentage of mothers dying in childbirth is nearly twice as high as Chile, which is second-worst among the 37 OECD nations. 

   This isn't a phenomenon which only happened last week: the numbers have been crashing throughout the entire 21st Century, though neither our social influencers nor the political class seem to take much interest in it. In the year 2000---which had already seen some decline in previous years, the maternal mortality rate in America stood at 9.8 per 100,000 births; today that number is 22.8. In 2021, the numbers had hit as high as 32.9: but even since then, the rates of infertility and infant mortality rates have climbed which probably account for the modest decline. Native-born Americans are not even reproducing at replacement levels. 

    The study also showed an interesting statistic; 2/3 of maternal mortality happens postpartum---within a year---of giving birth. Those are causes of death referred to as complications of pregnancy. While it is true that addictions, obesity, and the generally poor condition of American health is causing much of the problem, poor postnatal care is also a contributing factor. 

    The reason behind this likely has to do with the structure of American healthcare. Obamacare essentially turned over the system to Big Pharma and the Insurance Cartels---which had already amassed considerable power over it under the Neocon policy of outsourcing social services and favoring monopolistic practices. Policies on pregnancy and childbirth are today centered on the most cost-effective options and patients are merely commodities. Postnatal care doesn't involve the subsidies or medical expenses that natal care does, and the latter already is done as cheaply as possible. As proof of this, it should be noted that the highest rates of both maternal and infant mortality are in so-called Red States where Crony-Capitalist control over healthcare is more pronounced.

    Regardless of the policy reasons however, it's sadly obvious that a culture which considers access to abortion and homo 'marriage' as sacred human rights isn't likely to concern itself much over things like maternal or infant mortality rates. Nor will an economic system which is essentially dehumanizing put much value on things like the miracle of birth. So our culture will probably go on fighting over challenging traditional gender stereotypes while things like femininity and motherhood continue to decline. 

RED PILL ACOLYTE JAILED IN NYC ATTACKS

      Last week, police in New York City caught up with the perpetrator of at least some recent random attacks on women. Daquan Armstead, aged 31, of the Lower East Side Manhattan, reportedly was rather amazed that the authorities should take his past-time of walking up to ladies and punching them in the head so seriously. “It's different with men,” Armstead allegedly told cops, the DA’s office confirmed. “They don't test you like women do. You have to check women sometimes.” 

         

    Those who follow the near-cult like activities of a certain faction of the Manosphere probably recognize at once that statements about women testing men and having to check women sometimes are stock-phrases regularly used by the groups loosely defined as 'Red Pills': PUAs, MGTOW, Game-Planners, Alt-RINOs, etc. So where do we suppose that Amstead picked up such ideas? 

    It could very well be because a number of these characters have been getting attention lately from top media figures. A few years ago, a number of Red Pill blogs collapsed after exposures of corruption and various acts of violence connected with their readership began occurring on a regular basis. Since the beginning of this decade, a few of the old-school diehards like Vox Day and Rollo Tomassi and new crop of grifters raised on their poisonous ideologies have re-emerged on social media and video programs. Despite, by their own admissions, being hostile to traditional Conservatism, they've been embraced by our new and very woke breed of Conservatives. Andrew Tate, Steve Sailer, Doug Wilson, the late Gonzalo Lira (aka Coach Red Pill), Douglas Mackey (aka Ricky Vaughn) have all been praised by Tucker Carlson---who should know better---while a few other cretins like Jack Murphy and Anthime Gionet (aka Baked Alaska, among other aliases) have been turning up on allegedly Christian and Conservative websites and white-washed of all of their foul deeds and words. 

   While the Red Pill philosophy recognizes a difference between genders, it rejects the traditional ideals of Compensation and Complimentarianism, and advocates instead a degraded and debased form of Male Supremacy which, if one analyzes it, is really nothing more than Radical Feminist anti-male stereotypes inverted by the Red Pills into a system of virtues. 

     Daquan Armstead isn't receiving the same martyr status among the Red Pills themselves as they usually bequeath upon violent actors within their movement. There are a number of White Supremacists in the Red Pill Cult too, and they tend to be a bit squeamish about praising a Black man, no matter how sympathetic he is to their beliefs. Likewise, the skunks in the Corporate Media have been downplaying Armstead's probable connection to the Red Pills for the same racialist reasons. Radicalized non-White males don't fit the Official Narrative. Racialist narratives and counter-narratives are, like the so-called 'Gender Wars,' part of the Strategy of Tension, and must follow a close script. 

    However, minus the White Supremacist nonsense, the Red Pill actually has a sizable following among American Black men. The reason for this is because our culture is highly anti-male and men of all races are marginalized and depreciated. American men are relegated to spending their most productive years in an atmosphere of chronic ennui of under-and unemployment and presented with a generally hopeless future. Suicides and addictions are rampant among American men of all races, and there are few to no positive outlets for us. 

    Some of the more vulnerable men seek a scapegoat; and the Red Pill Philosophy preys upon such vulnerabilities at a man's deepest source: his innate fear of insignificance both economically and sexually. The latent homosexuality and 'prosperity gospels' of the Red Pills scapegoat American women---who, by and large, are themselves victims of the same Strategy of Tension, although it manifests itself differently in Feminine Psychology. 

    Specimens like Daquan Armstead are not symptomatic of our society's failure to deal with mental illness, as the Corporate Media claims. He's a specimen of society's failure to live up to its supposed goals of freedom for every individual to live up to his highest potential. Characters like these are exactly what's produced in a society where 10% of the population holds 100% of the wealth and power. Mediaeval Europe---which had a similar balance of social power---was also characterized by outbreaks of random violence, sexual perversion, and mass-hysteria as well as widespread substance abuse. 

   'Taking the Red Pill' doesn't cure anything: it merely changes the symptoms. The root of America's problems is essentially a spiritual one: where people have forgotten the basic principle of our nation's founding that we are all equal under the authority of our Creator, and instead pursue selfishness and self-aggrandizement at the expense of others.  

    

    

SOME FURTHER REFLECTIONS ON AMERICAN SPIRITUALITY

      While we don't mind discussion or debate here---and certainly don't mind calling out or exposing ideas or policies which are actually dangerous---I don't often get involved in online sniping-contests where personalities are brought up. This is for three reasons: one, it's distracting; two, I don't really care what online strangers think of me personally; and three, it doesn't serve any purpose. Fools will be fools; trolls will be trolls; and fanatics won't be convinced by evidence or reason anyway. 

    Part of our problem as a culture is that we've become like one big grown-up version of Middle School. One is presumed to have to belong to the right clique or he doesn't belong at all. This is one reason why the Great Reset has so many followers: everybody wishes they could have Big Daddy Government providing for and protecting them, while they're free to wallow with their comrades at pot-parties and engage in no-strings-attached sex. There are all sorts of similar movements in the West today; after all, "My dad can beat up your dad." The Whacko Left is the dominant clique in America, the Far Right makes up the second kind: they want Big Daddy to beat up the other side and be the big shots of the schoolyard themselves. 

    We've been through this before. The Incels and latent homos in the so-called Manosphere all agreed long ago that I promote Feminism because beating women and treating them like domesticated livestock doesn't seem to be a good way to manage a relationship. We've published about three dozen articles here against Radical Feminism, but that doesn't shake their beliefs. The online troll community known as Internet Sleuths decided that our publicizing a few unsolved crimes here was self-promotion and grandstanding---the fact that our blog is anonymous and not monetized never seemed to shake that belief. And so on...

   So, it appears that the latest clique on the scene is the Churchian Right. Despite around 20 or articles published here over the years condemning anti-Semitism, they've concluded that I'm an anti-Semite anyway for not looking the other way at a rogue Regime in Tel Aviv's Crimes Against Humanity. Heck, I even supported Trump's recognition of Jerusalem as the Israeli capital because it seemed at the time that such a move would solidify the two-State solution in Palestine. 

   These people have even gone so far as to accuse our blog of being in the service of Satan---as if we haven't published a single word here condemning or exposing Satanic cults. 

    "The Night Wind might want to discern, that perhaps, he may have been devoured, same as a number by percentage is growing in the USA." says one of these stellar thinkers, "In my opinion, when he chose the pseudonym The Night Wind, he gave everyone a clue of what may have devoured him." Maybe, again, if they paid more attention they would have gotten a clue that my taste for turn-of-the-century literature devoured me a lot more. 

   A little more discernment, in fact, might not hurt some on the Churchian Right. When you have a government that makes official statements like "there are no innocent civilians in Gaza;" and "even children are legitimate military targets;" and "the goal of the attacks is maximum destruction, not precision in the attacks;" and "the Palestinians are animals who need to be exterminated;" and "a nuclear attack on Gaza is the right option to destroy the people there,"---and hide behind the veneer of an established religion to say such blasphemies (and worse still, actually acting on them)---it ought to be a clear indication that we're dealing here with a cult and not any sort of ideology that any God would approve of. 

   In fact, things like anti-Semitism and militant Atheism grow out of exactly this kind of fusion of the political and spiritual. As we mentioned in a previous article, the Founders separated Church and State not only to keep a political church from becoming an instrument of state tyranny, but also to prevent fanatics from seizing the reins of power and imposing a religious tyranny themselves. It maybe argued (although it's no excuse) that Islamic Republics have political churches too; it may be so, but we should ask ourselves how much that form of government has contributed to anti-Moslem bigotry worldwide. 

   The problem with these Churchian Nationalists, Christian Zionists, or whatever they call themselves, is that they put the State in the place of God. The purpose of religion isn't to create a god in man's image; it's for men to re-create themselves in God's image. It's really an extension of the Prosperity Gospel applied on a communal level: the notion that Faith is about securing national wealth and prosperity rather than individuals taking responsibility for serving God in their own lives and creating a community that is based on shared spiritual values. This dissonance in their way of thinking is how they reconcile both inhuman barbarities on the Churchian Right and celebrating disgusting cultural atavisms on the Churchian Left. We need to get subservience to the Right and Left out of matters of Faith and start focusing on serving God instead.

    

    

APEC, ABORTION, AND OTHER FUN STUFF

      In a sort of bizarre extension of yesterday's news stories, the US Congress---which is supposedly controlled by the Republicans---mercifully ended its session early after rubber-stamping the Junta's budget proposal. At least they won't they won't be creating any more national embarrassments until after Thanksgiving. No sooner had the Budget passed, though, than some rather awkward details about Pentagon and Homeland Security projects were quietly slipped under the Media radar-screen. 

    Biden, however, managed to make a fool of himself for the second time at the APEC Summit. There were, however, a few positive developments: China agreed to start answering the Defense Department's phone calls again, which they stopped doing after Pelosi's Taiwan visit last year. The Junta agreed to set up a joint commission to address China's concern about repeated US Military infractions of their territorial waters. It's difficult to say whether that one will amount to much: Trump ordered the Navy to stop these provocations at one time, but the Pentagon ignored him. There were some token agreements on climate change and fighting the drug war too; but Xi no doubt is planning a quiet week in the Chinese countryside to recover his strength after the mentally exhausting ordeal of meeting with US politicians, CEOs, and the streets of San Francisco in general. 

    

   Just as we predicted yesterday too, the Corporate shills RNC 'experts' were dropping their prepared statements accusing Biden of being a sellout and a major weenie on China. The stand-up team of Thayer and Fanell---a pair of worthies of whom we've spoken before---stated that our Head-of-State's gaffes and diplomatic blunders are "worse than appeasement." An assertion in their article's opening paragraph is more instructive than it is informative:

  "Ironically, the risks should be all on Xi’s side as his increasing paranoia and purging of the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) has warped the Party and government, coupled with the collapse of the People’s Republic of China’s (PRC) economy and other major social, demographic problems that place Xi in a uniquely vulnerable position." 

   This is instructive because it illustrates two fundamental problems with the Neocon narrative in general.

   1. It's a complete lie. Xi is not paranoid; there no Party purges going on; China's economy is currently stronger than ours; and there is no demographic crisis going on there---other than those occasionally fomented by outside religious cults like the Soros-backed Wahhabi Jihadists and Lamaist Tibetans, or the Koch-backed Moonies and Falun Gong cults, etc.  

  2. It's complete Projection. Our leadership is the one characterized by paranoia, purges and political witch-hunts, a collapsing economy (at least for the bottom 80%), and deliberately engineered racial and gender divisions. 

 This is a fairly typical outline of what passes for 'Conservative Opposition' position-papers these days. Accuse everyone else of doing what we do; blame everything on the Democrats, immigrants, or the Chinese; hold your noses and vote for the Neocons; and if you object that makes you a defeatist, a sellout, an unrealistic idealist, etc. 

   

   The Congressional hiatus and the winding-down of the APEC debacle have, however, given the Republican Establishment time to promote its new-found wokeness on the Abortion issue. There was a good article at LifeSite News today giving a run-down of some of the characters involved. The only critique that I would have of this article is its assumption that leading Conservatives are 'sellouts.' The fact that no one in the GOP leadership has done a thing to stop the murder of the unborn since the Ford Administration, all the while profiting off fetal-tissue trafficking and other abortion-racket scams and doing very little since Roe was overturned, should indicate that the GOP's solid Pro-Life position was nothing but marketing angle and a sales-pitch all along. 

   The article starts with our President-In-Exile who is leading polls in a quixotic attempt to regain the White House. While I firmly believe that Trump was deposed in an illegal coup in 2020, I must confess that I have had legitimate concerns that our dispossessed Chief Executive has suffered some kind of nervous breakdown since the Putsch. Aside from his position on Abortion, Trump has refused to disavow the disastrous Operation Warp Speed and made some dangerous and really borderline-psychotic policy statements on more than one occasion recently. 

   Trump's remarks came in response to Ron DeSantis' allegedly hardline Pro-Life statements, although Ronnie-the-RINO himself hasn't been especially aggressive about outlawing the safe and legal procedure in his own state, Whacko Left histrionics to the contrary. 

   Kari Lake---who like DeSantis thrives on Publicity Stunts---and Neocon frauds Sean Hannity and Ann Coulter have shown their true colors as well. Though they weren't mentioned in the article, WEF Young Global Leaders and GOP presidential candidates Nikki Haley and Vivek Ramaswamy are taking the pro-life but not judgemental about personal choices approach. Ramaswamy hasn't made a detailed position yet, but his ties to Big Pharma and the Abortion Racketeers is self-explanatory. Chris Christie, like DeSantis, is generally fine with a so-called '15 week law' which still kills babies and keeps profits flowing to Big Pharma and the Biochemical Cartels, but can be sold as 'Pro-Life.' 

   Unfortunately, human life has become another commodity in the United States. Babies can't vote or donate to political lobbies while narcissistic women and opportunistic men can and do; so we know whose interests the Political Class is going to support. The Crown of Motherhood and the Miracle of Birth are not marketable concepts these days. If anyone doubts this, it would instructive to see a typical contract issued by any one of the major Insurance Cartels. There's plenty of coverage for Abortion Clinics---Fertility Clinics, not so much. Given the Cartels' influence in the Beltway, that's not liable to change any time soon.

   

SOME REMARKS ON THE MAINE SHOOTING

      The news was breaking all night about the latest mass-murder, this time in New England around the vicinity of Lewiston, Maine. Like a lot of other towns in this area, Lewiston was once a major industrial center (textiles), which saw its Blue-Collar base eroded by Corporate outsourcing many years ago, and today is a rather gentrified community with few economic opportunities and substandard schools. Those of us who grew up in just about any Northern State east of the Mississippi know this type of town well: some very nice older homes, well-kept parks and cemeteries, boarded-up factories, railroad crossings that haven't seen a train in 20 years, a few chain-stores and gas-stations, and a conspicuous absence of young people and families. No matter where one goes in towns like these, one gets the sense that its better days are long behind it. 

    The suspect or "person of interest in the mass-casualty event," (as postmodern Media Newspeak expresses it), is a male military veteran with a history of mental health problems. He evidently planned this event in some detail and, as of this writing, has managed to elude the police. Not knowing many details, we don't wish to speculate; but if it follows the typical pattern of these kinds of crimes, he's likely either committed suicide or is lying low planning to carry out whatever Phase Two of whatever plan the voices in his head are telling him to do. Police are usually at a disadvantage because crazy people by definition are unpredictable; and police responses and tactics unfortunately are highly predictable. 

   There are two things common to nearly all of these cases, which our Media and Political Class never seem to want to talk about. The first is that they are invariably committed by relatively young men aged 15-45; and there is a high percentage of these men with connections to certain institutions, i.e., schools and the military. Connections to other institutions: government agencies, larger businesses, and churches also frequently appear. The Official Narrative focuses on peripheral things like lack of adequate mental health treatment, access to guns, drugs, and vague definitions of 'extremism;' but nobody discusses why this seems to be affecting only one particular demographic. Many women, the elderly, and others outside this demographic also have poor access to mental health treatment, have access to guns, abuse drugs, and hold extremist positions but they aren't flipping out and gunning down everything in sight. 

   The other interesting thing about male perpetrators in this demographic is that they cut across all racial, economic, and political lines. They're not exclusively lower Middle-Class White males as the Media likes to suggest. For example the Dallas Police massacre was carried out by a young Black man; the Virginia Tech shooting was perpetrated by a young Asian; the Pulse Nightclub shooting was committed by an immigrant. Eliot Rodger and the Aurora 'Joker' Theater shooter came from wealthy backgrounds. Nor are they exclusively Right-Wing extremists; the Oregon College shooting and the Las Vegas massacre were committed by flaming Leftists. 

    If we balance that against other statistics pertaining to young men, we find that among the same demographic, suicides are among the leading cause of death; and crime and addiction rates are very high. We've also noted here many times that younger men increasingly are not interested in fulfilling traditional community roles. Fewer are marrying; fewer are seeking long-term gainful employment, fewer are seeking higher education, and it's also noteworthy that community and political leadership are largely being filled by women or retirees these days.

   When we take those factors into account, we begin to see a clearer picture. Our culture is failing its young men. When men are continually depreciated and marginalized in a society, one of three things is bound to happen: either they drop out altogether and become pot-smoking, apathetic couch-potatoes; or they become limp-wristed, gender-fluid, and submissive; or that bottled-up rage boils over and they either die by their own hand or they grab a weapon and go out and take random others with them. Most are doing the first, but the other two make the headlines. However, it must be understood that those in the latter two categories are symptomatic of the bigger problem. 

  The problem is not guns. The worst mass-murder in America's history was committed by a team of young alienated Arab men who hijacked airliners at knife-point; and the second worst was carried out by a young alienated White man with a bomb. Knives, vehicles, explosives, and poisons have all been used in these attacks. The problem is not extremism. It's totally predictable that alienated people seek out cults and fringe political movements to join with others as alienated and as mentally unstable as they are. Drugs, sexual perversion, and untreated mental illness are likewise antisocial manifestations of alienated characters.

   The fact that institutions like schools and the military figure prominently in the backgrounds of these individuals ought not to be overlooked. Both of those institutions in particular have made it a point to purge themselves of so-called toxic masculinity. A man with any sense of dignity in either one of these institutions finds himself trapped in an existential paradox. Academic achievement or military accomplishments teach him what he is capable of and instills confidence---which is immediately shattered by constant preaching about how worthless he is to society, usually at the hands of some 'superior' who got their authority from anything but merit or achievement. One can imagine the resentment which must build up in some men. 

   Given that the same types of people who control the Official Media Narratives and Counter-Narratives are also people whose jobs aren't based on merit, they certainly aren't willing to discuss Male Alienation and its causes; hence this is another Third Rail Topic---one that isn't supposed to be touched. Besides, mass-violence plays into the Oligarchy's Strategy of Tension: tragedy and gratuitous violence keeps the masses divided and distracted while our so-called 'leadership' can grandstand, do photo-ops, virtue-signal, and pretend as though they're really doing anything. Meanwhile, such events will continue and continue to escalate, while Media ratings soar, the pundits pontificate, and the politicians capitalize---until the next 'crisis' comes along for further exploitation. 

   

   

A RAY OF HOPE AMONG THE YOUNGER SET

      Yesterday, among the recommended channels I keep getting from Youtube, one vlog popped up titled The Male Loneliness Epidemic. The subject interested me, and the hostess was very cute😇 so I decided to hear what she had to say. I don't know much about her but she does have a large subscription base. From what she said, I get the impression that her politics are Left/Progressive: but to my amazement, this girl gets it.

   She actually covers much of what we've spoken of here: the commodification of relationships; the rise of the Red Pill/Alt Right, etc. On this last issue, she was especially prescient: "Twelve year-old white boys on Twitch are not being pulled into Fascism because of some Machiavellian desire to preserve and expand their privileges. It's because the Right talks to them and the Left doesn't." "It's all systemic issues and societal factors until the Left talks about men, then it's 'pull yourselves up by your bootstraps.'" And that's just a couple of the highlights. 

   All of which is true, and it's especially refreshing hearing it from a Leftist perspective. It's encouraging because it shows that younger women like this are waking up to the lie that they've been fed all of their lives. She likely grew up after the Clinton Co-Presidency's "Gender Wars" and where Feminist supremacy and toxic masculinity devolved into a New Normal. The Wall Street Oligarchs pulling the wires on the Clinton Administration of course cared nothing for women's rights anymore than the ones pulling the current Junta's wires do. In fact, radical Feminism served it's purpose by alienating and weakening men, eroding families, and depressing wages; and so it was quickly discarded in favor of the Homo Agenda once the Biden/Harris Junta was installed as the National Government. 

  Younger women like these are beginning to see through the Lie that is postmodern America. Growing up in a world where the State promoted 'female empowerment' and 'believe all women' and 'bring-your-daughters-to work days,' they came to maturity in a culture which suddenly found them as expendable as it had men before. Those of us who grew up in the 80s well recall that the Corporate bosses and politicians once praised the indispensability of the American working man. 

   Then, a few years later when the same wealthy business interests could outsource jobs to low-wage foreign labor pools and found that women could fill the new service and tech economy at 75% of what they paid men, all of us unemployed and unemployable men were tossed aside like so much garbage. Today's women are experiencing much the same thing. The Corporate interests are discarding them in favor of the Homo Agenda, by their own admission, because homosexuals and transsexuals have fewer familial concerns and tend to support their own communities. Thus, an 'LGBTQ-friendly' corporation has by definition a more loyal workforce.

   The bottom line here is something that the hostess actually observed: "Because feeling alienated under Capitalism apparently isn't a thing." The Corporate Cartels are not worried in the least about the quality of life of citizens or workers, a point that we and others have made here before about exactly what kind of sham 'democracy' we really live under. FYI, for anyone concerned about 'homo equality' that group will get discarded too; once these Corporate Oligarchs have perfected AI, robotics, and transhumanist technologies to the point that they don't need human workers so much. 

   "Don't get me wrong: the Republican Party will do nothing to help any of this" she quite truthfully asserts, "but the Right is, at least rhetorically, offering men something other than nothing or the eternal HR department...a lot of men simply feel that they have no purpose."

   That sums up the problem perfectly. As the late blogger Sir Guy said at his site What Women Never Hear pointed out that a man's greatest innate fear is insignificance. We've created a dysfunctional culture where insignificance is imposed on men from birth and wonder why they drop out, take drugs, or end in suicides; if not being lured into the cultish claws of charlatans a la Andrew Tate, Jordan Peterson, Vox Day, Doug Wilson, Rollo Tomassi, ad nauseum. 

  It's really a hopeful sign that an increasing number of young women are seeing through the hypocrisy of Neoliberalism without embracing the other extreme of Alt-RINO neofascism. Women aren't by nature community leaders, however their innate abilities as the future of the human race instinctively knows when a given society is headed on a dangerous course.

THE BIRTHRATE BOMB AND BUD LIGHT

    There was an interesting news story today from one of the Beltway's colonial outposts in East Asia. What passes for an actual government in South Korea today took some measures ostensibly to remedy that nation's desperately declining birthrates. South Korea's Ministry of Gender Equality and Family (if one can imagine a government agency with a name like that capable of doing anything positive for society) announced that it would begin providing a subsidy for 'reclusive youths aged 19-24' to reintegrate them into society. 

    The new policy will give people in this age group $500 per month, which supposedly will be spent on socializing. We'll see about that, but personally I'm a little skeptical.

    South Korea's birthrate is currently at 0.75 children per family: which is at the very bottom of the world. At this rate, the population of South Korea will drop 50% by the 22nd Century, while four times as many workers will be needed to support the aging population. 

   Academia Incorporated has come up with several---mostly bogus---explanations for the crisis in which South Korea currently finds itself. The reality is that very few countries have absorbed the degenerate cultural ethos of the Left to the degree with South Korea has. We've given them all of the blessings of American Exceptionalism. Things like:

   1. Widespread corruption throughout the upper levels of government and society which saps initiative and innovation;

  2. Vast wealth inequality that makes raising a family too expensive;

  3. Cutthroat competition and egoism that pushes relationships aside;

  4. Meaningless distraction throughout their media;

  5. Radical Feminism which has depreciated men and raised the average age of marriage to 29 for most women.

  6. Growing acceptance of the homo agenda and legalized abortion. 

  7. Declining fertility rates via regulatory capture of health agencies---

    This list could go on. The effects of our Cultural Imperialism are taking a toll over there. South Korea currently has even higher suicide rates than we have; a drug problem that has escalated in spite of severe laws; and among the highest rates of mental illness in Asia including depression and alcoholism. Obviously, this isn't going to be fixed with a $500 handout. 

   As further proof that the culture is the problem, consider that the (many) South Koreans who expatriate to other countries tend to be among the best of immigrant communities. Statistics among Asian immigrants in the US, for example, show that Koreans have low crime rates, are among the most economically productive, and have strong family structures with lower rates of divorce, abortion, and other problems that characterize the native-born here. Another interesting comparison is against the demographics of North Korea---which the jackals in the US Media portray as one of the grimmest societies on Earth.

  North Korea has a birthrate of 2.0 which, while not outstanding, is still sustainable and about twice what the non-immigrant birthrate in the US is. Divorce and abortion are both legal in North Korea, but apparently quite uncommon. For obvious reasons, getting a reliable assessment of how satisfied the population is with their quality of life there is impossible; but on the surface at least, they seem to be doing a bit better than the South. 

  While there is no actual law against homosexuality in North Korea, the perversion is not encouraged, and certainly not celebrated. The North Koreans, in fact, seem to place a high value on traditional families. Today there was a headline in their official news outlet announcing that this year's first triplets were born to a farm worker (who is apparently now something of a local hero) and his wife.

    Contrast that with the American Media's headlines which currently include:

1. Ganging up on a Liberal Feminist who finds the terms birthing parent and person with a uterus degrading to women. 

2. Chimping out over a Manosphere 'influencer' who defends substituting trans-men for real women.

3. Listening to the Controlled Opposition explain why Bruce Jenner is a genuine social role model while Dylan Mulvaney is not.

4. Listening to the Controlled Opposition trying to pretend that a $5 billion loss for a corporation valued at $300 billion is some great victory in the culture war.

Et cetera, et cetera...

     It's also noteworthy that here in Exceptional America we're holding serious national debates over whether children should be gender-reassigned and whether drag performers should lead children's story-hours. Meanwhile, in the country that Rationalwiki describes as: "the most undemocratic and totalitarian state in existence, even worse than Saudi Arabia and only contested by ISIS at its peak...with possibly the world's worst human rights record," says this about the triplets' birth:

   "Immediately after being confirmed as a pregnant woman with triplets, the mother was admitted to the Pyongyang Maternity Center and received medical assistance from medical staff while receiving various nutritious foods and supplements. Thanks to the efforts of doctors and nurses here, the mother delivered her triplets (all sons) smoothly...The medical group warmly welcomed the triplets and their parents as they left the Pyongyang maternity center in good health, receiving gifts of kindness, including gold rings." 

   Earlier this year, we noted that another of South Korea's neighbors, China, had experienced a population decline. Instead of subsidizing Incels, the Chinese Government started off with an interesting project. 

    "A number of vocational colleges in China are offering students an extended Spring Break while encouraging them to experience nature and pursue love — a move that has been interpreted by some on Chinese social media as a bid to boost the country’s falling birth rate...

  "Nine colleges affiliated with the Fan Mei Education Group announced this year’s extended break from April 1 to 7, with the theme of enjoying flowers and falling in love, in a March 23rd press release."

  Meanwhile, here in the Prozac Nation, our schools and universities employ rigid speech codes and other forms of persecution against anyone showing interest in the opposite sex; while fanatically pushing a pro-homo agenda. Once again, Postmodern Neoliberal democracies are made to look like complete fools and utter failures by Communist regimes. We've come to the point where our own Radical Feminists and foreign Marxists make more sense than contemporary ideology on so-called 'gender identity.' 

  In the typical Manichean black-white either-or way that Americans approach any issue, I certainly don't want to come across as pro-Communist or pro-Feminist; but at certain point one has to admit that they are at least making an effort to deal with problems. When we've reached a point when Anna Kasparian is defending the dignity of women with more determination than all of the milquetoast Right combined; and North Korean and Chinese Commissars are coming up with better social policy than the democratic West---at this point it's time to admit that we have gone radically off-course. 

 There's nothing positive about authoritarian Party rule or gender politics---but that's the whole point. We can't even sink to the level of Marxist Feminists and do it right. Ask yourselves which political faction in the US even addresses---let alone actually having a plan for--- the demographic vise that we've put our young people into. The Whacko Left Wing thinks that lower birth rates, more abortions, fewer traditional families, and more gender dysphoria are good things. The Knee-Jerk Right wants to expel immigrants and have everyone working 80 hours a week for a bare minimum of housing and food---that somehow is supposed to increase the population. 

 All of these attempts from the contemporary Right to paint the Chinese and North Koreans as enemies of America and scapegoating immigrants are just a form of whitewashing the truth. These Communist States aren't getting better, we however, are getting worse; and our problems are entirely of our own making. We surrendered our schools and media to the Radical Left; we surrendered our economic base to globalists, we surrendered our families to 'the village' and now we're reaping what we've sown.
