Guest Post by Paul Craig Roberts
Let’s be honest and face it. The Western countries are no longer democracies with free speech, a rule of law, and accountable governments. They are tyrannies.
Wherever you look you see free speech stifled. You see law used as a weapon against journalists like Julian Assange and an American president like Donald Trump and his supporters. The Biden regime has put one thousand Americans in prison for attending a rally for Trump by asserting without any evidence that the rally was an insurrection. The Western media is a propaganda ministry. The West’s foreign policy consists of war.
Law professor Jonathan Turley puts it this way:
“After Musk decided to buy Twitter, Hillary Clinton called upon European countries to force social media companies to censor Americans. The European Union quickly responded by threatening Musk and other executives. Now, UK Technology and Science Secretary Michelle Donelan has announced plans to jail social media executives if they fail to censor so-called “harmful” content on their websites. The government, of course, will determine what is deemed too harmful for citizens to see or hear.” https://www.lewrockwell.com/2023/04/no_author/the-tower-for-twitter-uk-minister-calls-for-jailing-social-media-bosses-who-do-not-censor-speech/
Democrats want to imprison Matt Taibbi for examining the Twitter files released by Elon Musk and showing that Twitter was coerced by the US government to censor the truth on many topics. In other words, as I warned would happen, it is already a de facto criminal offense to speak the truth and soon will be de jure. https://jonathanturley.org/2023/04/22/a-is-for-authoritarianism-ranking-democrat-suggests-possible-criminal-charges-against-journalist-matt-tiabbi/
Increasingly, leaders posing as democrats act as dictators. The French president recently ignored the elected parliament and decreed a change in the pension age that the French people opposed. The Canadian president decreed mandated injections of an untested substance in violation of the Nuremberg Laws and punished the truckers for protesting. US presidents Bush an Obama issued unconstitutional degrees by suspending habeas corpus and ordering execution on the basis of suspicion alone without due process. And now we see the British government planning to arrest Elon Musk for permitting free speech on Twitter.
Even crimes are being legalized with cities controlled by Democrats refusing to enforce property crimes if they are committed by blacks.
And only the French protest. Americans come across as sheep. The latest poll, possibly a concocted piece of disinformation as polls often are, finds that most Americans do not want Biden or Trump to run for president. One can understand about Biden whose main achievements are to normalize sexual perversion and to set the US on a course of war with Russia and China. But Trump stood up for the American people against the ruling oligarchy. If it is true that Americans want to abandon the only leader who speaks for them, the American people have acquiesced to tyranny.

The American people are a third foreign invader,and a third homo, and fifteen percent bobongo, just want free shit and entertainment . The revolution will never happen.
The revolution is already happening, among a small remnant who are building a parallel society. Tom Woods is into it, and many others. Tom’s one of the most accessible sources of info on it and connections. Your frustration is noted, but useless.
Ooooooh the remnant lol makes me have a good laugh.
While your census can be debated the point is true.
The Western World is full of the non-west and the culture, ideas, preferences, and biological motives of non-west.
If only the will to survive as a people and her nation’s borders were as impenetrable as the hubris of magic dirt blank slaters, the true useful idiots of the globohomo death cult, there still might be a bit of dirt left to call our own.
The occidental homo economicus has painted xirself into the corner called liberal democracy. The Free Market Economy is who we are, so we need moar economy. The people are fungible units of production and consumption.
Wait! They have to love freedom too. Okay, we need to spread moar liberal democracy over there so we can have more over here.
And now we are living the punchline. “We’ve already established what you are, now we are just negotiating the price.”
What happens when the price suddenly drops? We are gonna find out.
Let’s face it, the West is only as good as it’s leadership: Picture Biden trying to climb the stairs to Air Force One as an analogy…or complete a coherent sentence without sounding like Fetterwoman.
The leadership is only as good as the population pool they’re selected from.
What the popular phrase this week? Turtles all the way down?
Fortunately, I am no longer OF this world, so the world can just suck it.
Try to help. Try to advise. Lead by example.
Nothing worked.
You have not sold out to walk the easier path. Inspirational when a person demonstrates the stubborn integrity to not be bought at any price.
Outliers are how society sees where to go 🙂
… it’s just a messy process.
the western world has valuables. let’s take them. thus began the saga which begat the sogginess.
the continuation of the neverending babel tower storeys.
That’s because when I protest……well ,itll be mostly peaceful…..
