American Awakening: Identity Politics and Other Afflictions of Our Time by Joshua Mitchell may be worth reading. Here’s a summary.

America seems to have gone mad. It still is the world’s richest and most powerful country, with the oldest continuous government on earth, yet it is in deep crisis and divided between hostile camps that reject each other’s legitimacy. Paradoxically, what made America strong also makes it inherently fragile. Joshua Mitchell, a professor of government at Georgetown University, presents a cogent diagnosis of America’s dark night of the soul in a remarkable new book that should be required reading for anyone who wants to make sense of today’s United States.

A Chinese acquaintance quips, “Now you are having your own Cultural Revolution.” In fact, the criticism and self-criticism sessions imposed on corporate employees and school personnel to root out hidden racism recall Mao’s Red Guards. But America is not China, and this is not a Cultural Revolution; it is an eruption of Christian religious feeling channeled into secular obsessions.

Asia Times’s review presents a somewhat jumbled but still compelling portrait. I may just pick this one up and report back in a while. If you’d like to beat me to it, check here.

No, They Are Not

I saw the newer news articles, but as usual, VD beat me to the commentary. I’ll adopt his:

“But irrespective of the religion professed, angry people kill. The French in the course of their history has killed millions of people. Many were Muslims. Muslims have a right to be angry and to kill millions of French people for the massacres of the past.”

Mohamad also said “the West” shouldn’t impose its views and values on others.

“To do so is to deprive the freedom of these people,” he wrote.

How, precisely, is he wrong? The West shouldn’t impose its views and values on others, which is precisely why it should not permit those others to reside in the West.

And how is this any different than another non-Western people holding the people of the West responsible for everything from the Spanish Inquisition to the Holocaust?

Immigration is war.

UPDATE: The Interior Minister at France understands France has been invaded and is at war:

Of course, faced with a very real war, the politi-rats still placate the attackers and invaders. Encore une fois, ma lettre à la France. Éliminez les incompatibles! Kick the incompatibles out!

Churchians for Non-Nationalism

Anyone who stands against the nations for all groups, white included, stands against God. Add in political worship and one finds someone probably not too keen on Heaven or America.

Loving America almost as much as heaven

Peters isn’t sure he likes the term “Christian nationalism” because he worries people will equate it with being a white nationalist or someone who hates Muslims and women — all things he disavows. But he concedes it fits the definition of someone who wants America to remain a Christian nation. “Some Christians are trying to shame those who love this country or love President Trump,” he said. “We’re saying, we’re not only unashamed, but we’re going to put it in the name.”

The worries aren’t natural. Chuck Baldwin’s latest sermon was all over this issue of crisis. God did not elect Donald Trump for Trump’s sake or the GOP’s. If there was a divine hand in 45, then it was to illuminate what Christians are doing wrong. One such thing is continuing to follow Charlatans.

Benedict XVI is Pope

Period.

Jorge Bergoglio has confirmed this fact.

In a documentary that premiered Wednesday in Rome, Pope Francis called for the passage of civil union laws for same-sex couples, departing from the position of the Vatican’s doctrinal office and the pope’s predecessors on the issue.

The remarks came amid a portion of the documentary that reflected on pastoral care for those who identify as LGBT[P].

“Homosexuals have a right to be a part of the family. They’re children of God and have a right to a family. Nobody should be thrown out, or be made miserable because of it,” Pope Francis said in the film, of his approach to pastoral care.

After those remarks, and in comments likely to spark controversy among Catholics, Pope Francis weighed in directly on the issue of civil unions for same-sex couples.

There’s no controversy. Ann Barnhardt was correct all along: Benedict is the Pope, Bergoglio is an anti-papal usurper. Please pray for all of them.

The increasingly impressive Roosh V offers up excellent advice for Christians living during the final days of the US Empire. Most of it is about hunkering down in self-reliance. However, he does touch on Biblical support for getting away:

A lot of men have asked for my thoughts about leaving the country and going to a land where Christians are least likely to be persecuted in the near future (Russia is often mentioned). There is even scriptural support for fleeing persecution.

“Now brother will deliver up brother to death, and a father his child; and children will rise up against parents and cause them to be put to death. And you will be hated by all for My name’s sake. But he who endures to the end will be saved. When they persecute you in this city, flee to another.” —Matthew 10:21-23

Be mindful that one might not want to wait until overt persecution commences to make the hard choices.

Jesus Christ Was Not A Refugee

The churchian heretics are at it again, spreading worldly misinformation in the name of the devil’s narrative. The Southern Baptist Convention was a bulwark against the forces of modernity. Now, it is part and parcel with the rot. The SBC is dropping “Southern” from its name because “racist” or something. Among all the lunacy, this sentence, also previously parroted by “Pope” Francis, from President J.D. Greear stands out: “Our Lord Jesus was not a White Southerner but a brown-skinned Middle Eastern refugee.”

No, He was not. Here, they try to blend too recent SJW narratives into one in order to curry favoritism with the enemies of Christ and all Christians. The color of Christ’s skin is an open and irrelevant point of speculation. But, He was not a refugee.

As God, He held and continues to hold Total Dominion over all Creation, even, indirectly, that temporarily given to the prince of the SJW’s world. As a man, He was a citizen by birth of the Judean client state of the Roman Empire. His parents – I’ve read this somewhere – were on a trip to satisfy their government’s edicts. How was He a refugee while transiting His own land? He wasn’t.

The fact that Herod decided to persecute Jesus and other young males (like an ancient Planned Parenthood!) is as irrelevant as the Lord’s pigment levels. One will note that the Eastern Wise Men came to Christ – He and His Family did not flee to them. And, according to the churchian Judeo-christians, wouldn’t Herod’s evil actions be justified by Romans 13 anyway? By these people’s warped reasoning, Christ was at best a criminal on the run from the “law.” As a matter of fact, didn’t one B. Shapiru say exactly that?

Good Baptists: a descriptive title is just that. You’d be far better to drop the SBC and its lies.

Churchians Craving Worldly Approval

Add the SBA to the list of sunk denominations in Amerika. Allan Wall on the demise and a solution.

Why the Baptist leadership’s radical shift left? Most likely, elite Baptists yearn for respect from secular society, which they sure won’t get for opposing abortion and same-sex marriage. Thus, they go overboard on the race issue.

And of course, Southern Baptists—Baptist Southerners—have twice as much to prove!

All patriotic members of Southern Baptist churches should be appalled.

There’s a solution: Secession.

Baptists believe in “local church autonomy,” as Greear himself said. SBC does not control the autonomous local congregations, nor does it own their local property—unlike the Episcopal church. A Southern Baptist church in Anytown, U.S.A. can secede from SBC and declare its independence.

My advice to Baptists: Get your local congregation out of the Southern Baptist Convention. Free your local church from the growing “Wokeness” infecting the Southern Baptist Convention.

Become a free congregation, responsible only to God and each other, not to woke charlatans like J.D. Greear and Eric Brentmyer.

A good start. Maybe drop the (non-BLM) protestation too.

An “Alarming Pattern” In The Schools

In the PRIVATE schools. I’ve made scant mention of this problem before – as bad as the public schools are, many (most?) privates are not necessarily the answer. A billionaire calls out an agenda:

Billionaire hedge funder John Paulson protested against ultra-elite Manhattan school Spence for what he claims was an “alarming pattern” of “anti-white indoctrination” in its curriculum.

Paulson, 64, who famously made millions betting against the American housing market prior to the 2008 financial crisis and was an economic adviser to President Trump, wrote a 2017 letter to prestigious all-girls school Spence, attended by his two daughters. Famous Spence alums include Gwyneth Paltrow, Kerry Washington, Emmy Rossum, Bee Shaffer and Jade Jagger.

It reads, “In recent years we have reached out on several occasions to discuss a disturbing trend in one area of the curriculum that we believe is having a negative impact on our daughters’ education. As we’ve noted before, there appears to be an anti-white indoctrination that permeates many parts of the Spence curriculum.”

I would imagine that whatever he’s noticed is only the tip of the iceberg. There’s a narrative that has infected Amerika, all parts, including public and many (most?) private schools. It’s not just anti-white, though that is, for now, the main visible conduit. It’s also anti-American, anti-Western, anti-family, anti-traditional, anti-learning, anti-normal, anti-sane, anti-Christian, and anti-God. By their works, we know them.

This example is in NYC, where one might expect to find it and, in fact, be surprised had the opposite been alleged. In North Carolina, an “elite” classical private school openly, if crookedly, avows a “Judeo-Christian worldview.” Classical learning and reason, under a worldview of inherent contradiction and falsehood, is impossible. In Georgia, an “elite” prep school openly, and unashamedly, pushes the globohomo agenda, especially regarding the superiority of secular Islam – surely sanitized to any reverence for Allah. Both of these Southern schools cater predominantly to White Christian families.

Why? Why is it that the alternative to the pagan idiot factories of the state offers the same debasement, if at a slower rate (and higher price)? It’s because of the fallen nature of the entire society and because the concept of schools is unnatural. There are, here, and there, good private academies run by decent people, where learning happens without resort to the satanic. They’re getting hard to find, diamonds in the dung heaps. The sure-fire solution: Homeschool, or better yet, unschool.

Ria! Ria! HUNGARY!

Ria! Ria! HUNGARY!

This is part three in my series on alternative civilized nations for young Americans to consider as the United States continues to disintegrate.

PART I: Poland

PART II: Slovakia

My title derives from Hungary’s 2016 national (football) chant, which does not really translate into any decipherable message – other than to give the chance of shouting the name of a great nation. The ancient royal motto was Regnum Mariae Patrona Hungariae, a tribute to the Catholic heritage of a great people. For a while, the simultaneous cry was Cum Deo pro Patria et Libertate -With the help of God for Homeland and Freedom! If you’re into God, freedom, and I suppose, “Ria,” then keep reading.

The Third Republic of Hungary, a little larger than the US (client) State of South Carolina, is another of the terrific Central Euro nations that are sometimes described as “Eastern.” It’s south of Slovakia, east of Austria, west of Romania, and north of the rump states of the former Yugoslavia. It’s been in the news lately, even in fading Amerika, for very good reasons. 

A noticeable trend continues, there: the clear and coherent nation of ten million is 98% Hungarian with a small admixture of other Slavs, Germans, and a few Roma. As estimated it is at least 60% Christian (40% Roman Catholic). A quarter of those surveyed did not answer and other evidence suggests the Messianic population is considerably higher. (The minor party of the right-wing governing coalition even has “Christian” in its name!) As in Poland, the incompatible are not welcome.

The national IQ average is in-line with that in Poland, with the same upward trajectory as Slovakia. In fact, partly, for some of the reasons below, this trend might be starting to accelerate.

She’s a beauty of a country, home to rolling hills and valleys, replete with both forests and gentle grasslands. Four mountain ranges are present, including the far eastern tip of the Alps. The climate is variable, with warm summers and cold winters – partly governed by geography and elevation, as much as by latitude.

Booming Budapest, the capital and largest city, is home to a metro population of over three million. This metropolis, and most other cities and towns, is a blending of the modern and improving and the traditional, the proud, and the beautiful. By general European standards, the cost of living is low. Taxes are moderate and, as in Poland, the people who pay for the various social services are the same people who reap the benefits of the programs. The house currency is the Forint (300ish = 1 USD), though a possible conversion to the Euro is under consideration.  Hungary is a full member of the EU and a Schengen country.

Hungarian is a different kind of language than Slovak or Polish, but it is learnable. Consult Duolingo or Hungarian101, a Youtube series. 

The Parliament is controlled by the combined forces of (majority) Fidesz, the Hungarian Civic Alliance, and the Christian! Democratic People’s Party (a minority splintering of Fidesz). Together, they hold a narrow … super-majority of the 199 seats. They are also regularly joined by other center-right, pro-Hungarian parties. Viktor Orbán “The Man!” is Prime Minister and leader of Fidesz.

Orbán, a man of the kind America needed when it still counted, is the architect of Hungary’s successful stand against the powers of homoglobo. Soros and Co. called, as usual, for third-world immigrants to “fix” the Hungarian economy and society. However, Orbán became possessed of the insane idea that somehow, magically perhaps, it was possible to birth new native Hungarians. In 2019, Parliament enacted his plan via the … Child Tax Credit!!!

Yes, young people, buy into this graduated plan and see your population (magically) increase while your tax burden declines. If a happily married couple (magically) produces four or more future citizens, then they PAY NO TAXES! It’s brand new, but I can predict where this will go: First, there will be a baby boom, silencing the globos with vigorous native blood. Second, place your bets, tax revenues will, particularly in the long-run, rise. A win, win, win.

We know this is a winning scheme because of the way the enemy’s lapdog media spins it – as a move of “desperation.” By their words, we know who is really desperate. And, in Hungary, the enemy has great cause to worry. It’s another nation where the true and the beautiful is celebrated, expected, and enforced, and where the values of Amerika – sodomy, abortion, obesity, usury, and death – are frowned upon, ridiculed, and forbidden.

Again, your ticket for admission to this branch of real civilization is either employment or education-related. Your task is to research the specifics and logistics. Start Page and the Duck! Soon, very soon, I will revisit Poland, where I have uncovered nearly unbelievable programs designed to help both the nation and (certain) young internationals, like YOU! You will not want to miss that, along with some of the extended cultural information I’ve found. 

I’m doing all of this for you, the future of the West. For your part, those who take the plunge, again, please send me a postcard!
