"Almost every US ally claims to be a friend because of America’s military. It’s really not shared values or even interests. Other nations like being defended by a superpower, so they need not spend much on their militaries.
The result is that America has a couple score spoiled, entitled, and obnoxious 'allies' who under-invest in their militaries, whine if the US looks anywhere else, demand constant 'reassurance' that Washington will forever protect them even if they do nothing for themselves, and insist that it is in America’s interest to create a permanent defense dole for the indolent, disinterested, irresponsible, and greedy among them – which of course is most of them."

"The tearing down of cultural, heroic, and veterans memorials and monuments is what a people’s worst enemies do upon conquest for the purposes of subjugation. The eradication of monuments is the jackboot of a tyrant upon the neck of a conquered people meant to demoralize and symbolize complete control.
In the state-sponsored and promoted removal of Gen. Lee’s Memorial, Virginians have not seen such vile hedonism and disrespect since the Taliban destroyed the Buddhas of Bamyan, or ISIS tore down the statuary of Ashurbanipal and ravaged the artistry of Palmyra! Americans, only a few years ago, saw and reviled these actions as barbarity and criminality of the worst order and criticized them universally as the destruction of world-historical patrimony and cultural evolution. Virginian’s government and its agencies are now showing the civilized world that Americans and Virginians at the highest levels are just as capable of barbarism and mindless hedonism as the most depraved order of our species. Sadder yet is the vast majority of Virginians who have sat by and said or done nothing to resist the slander, historical revisionism, cancel-culture, and the rioting, and looting in our cities, driven by the runaway horse of a false premise of political correctness, for power, with racist motivation."

"Trying to avoid all that crime you’ve been reading about when you move? Realtor.com and Redfin.com will be of no help. They have removed all crime-by-neighborhood statistics from their Web sites because they say it would be 'racist' to discover U.S. Department of Justice crime statistics showing, for example:
In the 75 largest counties, 60% of all murder and robbery defendants are black, although blacks are 15% of the population in those counties.
Blacks commit homicides at a rate that is eight times higher than with whites and Hispanics combined.
In Chicago 80% of shootings and homicides are committed by blacks, 2% by whites.
In New York City 75% of shootings are by blacks, 3% by whites.
The above government crime statistics are from a presentation by Heather MacDonald.
Realtor.com and Redfin.com claim that it would be racist to acknowledge such truths, let alone to publish them online because, as you know, being called a racist by the Bolshevik Left in the media is an infinitely worse crime than first-degree murder."

"You can never control people with the truth, because the truth has an existence outside yourself that cannot be altered or directed. It may be the truth itself that controls people, not you.
You can never force people to obey rules that make sense, because they may be obeying reason, not your force.
True power lies in making people afraid of something that does not exist, and making them abandon reason in the name of protecting themselves from the invented threat.
To guarantee you have control, you must make people see things that are not there, make people live in a reality you build around them, and force people to follow arbitrary, contradictory rules that change day by day.
To truly test their loyalty, their hypnosis, you could even tell them there’s nothing to be afraid of anymore, but they need to follow the rules anyway.
Maybe that’s the point. Maybe the story isn’t supposed to be believable. Maybe the rules aren’t meant to make sense, they are meant to be obeyed.
Maybe the more contradictory & illogical the regulations become, the more your compliance is valued.
Maybe if you can force a person to abandon their judgment in favour of your own, you have total control over their reality."

"The impulse behind the demonization of the unvaccinated is essentially puritanical. We have to get rid of unclean things and people. Also, holding the wrong political ideology makes you unclean. You should be purged. That is why the Biden administration is not concerned about mass firings. It helps purify the country of recalcitrants. It is a Maoist impulse, and Biden has his own Red Guard, the Karens screaming on Twitter and in stores and wearing masks alone in cars. They are the grass-roots tyrants."

"No group in this world is above ridicule, and that includes the mentally ill. Just because the mentally ill become an organized mob does not mean they are a victim status group deserving of special protection or special treatment. The mentally ill are the last people on the planet that should be given the power to dictate the course of society. Madness is, in a way, infectious. Narcissism is poisonous. Psychopathy is radioactive. The majority of humans naturally discriminate against such people because every facet of our biology, every cell of our being warns us that if they are given an ounce of control destruction will surely follow.
Human tribes and societies have understood this reality for thousands of years. Our repellent reactions to madness are ingrained in our cellular memory. Just as we instinctually recoil from rattlesnakes and scorpions, we have also learned over millennia to recoil from unhinged minds. But for some reason in the past 5-10 years, we are being told to embrace the exact reverse. The insane are now above the rest of us. The insane must be worshiped. The insane are our leaders and role models. Biology is wrong, and the cultural Marxists and woke ideologues are right.
The new narrative is that the truth-tellers and rational people are the 'insane' ones, and they should be watched or possibly locked up."

"The goal is to take away the interest, the capacity, the comfort, both internally and also on a societal level, of men and women coming together. If men and women stop speaking to one another, stop dating, getting married, having children, then we no longer have families. If we don't have families, we don't have civic organizations, churches and communities. The state then steps in and supplants the role of the father and begins to take over."
Dr. Mark McDonald
"The English language has the largest vocabulary and is the most expressive. But according to the Woke imbeciles, this makes it oppressive. The Woke program is to shrink the language until all oppressive elements, such as gender pronouns, are eliminated. Once we no longer can know if it is a he or a she, a mother or a father, a grandmother or grandfather, aunt or uncle we will no longer be oppressed.
The new history is also free of factual basis. Wars are about whatever issue an organized interest group finds serves its interests. Critical Race Theory is a theory that specifies the facts, not a theory based in facts.
Mathematics is racist. That 2+2=4 is a white racist construct. This reduces mathematics to systemic racism.
Disrespect for facts is the hallmark of tyranny. Educational systems are the institutions that enculturate people into society and pass on its values. It is how a society and a culture survive as a country lives and develops in time. Today enculturation has been replaced with alienating youth from the society and culture that is their birthright. Instead, they are taught that their culture is evil and has a long history of crimes against humanity. Indeed, the New York Times 1619 Project teaches that the United States was founded on racism. The so-called 'Civil War' is explained as the North’s attempt to cleanse itself of its own racist sins by projecting them upon the South."
Paul Craig Roberts
"A truth's initial commotion is directly proportional to how deeply the lie was believed. It wasn't the world being round that agitated people, but that the world wasn't flat. When a well-packaged web of lies has been sold gradually to the masses over generations, the truth will seem utterly preposterous and its speaker a raving lunatic.
The ideal tyranny is that which is ignorantly self-administered by its victims. The most perfect slaves are, therefore, those which blissfully and unawaredly enslave themselves."
Donald James Wheal
"Groups impress upon one's psychic concepts pseudo "facts" that are unprovable and have no foundation in fact but are accepted as an absolute for generation after generation. Group dynamics promote altruism and a mind locked out of reality. Groups socialize and dehumanize.
Communication fails between husband and wife, between friends, between neighbors, between professional associates, etc., etc., in direct relation to group influences and their degree of altruism.
This is not altruism as you have probably been led to believe. This altruism is a morality based on the philosophical premise that man lives for the sake of others... that man's life and property are available for sacrifice to 'higher causes' (e.g., the common good, the public interest, society, the needy, the world, country, the flag, etc.). Herr Hitler used the morality of altruism with his 'higher good' to which anything and everything should be sacrificed for the 'National Will'."
