Yes, the politically correct are working away to take the Christ out of Christmas:
https://www.sunshinecoastdaily.com.au/news/no-christ-in-christmas-next-school-jesus-ban-spark/3205543/

“A ‘JESUS ban’ in public schools has sparked fury from Coast MPs, after reports kids swapping Christmas cards, making Christmas tree decorations or bracelets could be censored.
The Australian reported an unofficial policy from the Queensland Department of Education and Training had identified junior evangelism as an issue to be stamped out, following a Departmental review into GodSpace religious instruction materials.”

     Hey, you know that you are really poor when all you have left to sell is your blood plasma, as many millennials now face:
https://www.naturalnews.com/2017-12-18-lacking-any-real-job-skills-broke-millennials-are-now-donating-blood-plasma-as-a-routine-source-of-income.html

“One former community college student spoke about how she visits an Oregon plasma donation center twice a week following a reduction in her hours at work.  At the center, people who donate plasma can earn anywhere from $25 to $150 per week over a maximum of eight visits per month.
The center she frequents markets itself to millennials, touting its close location to the University of Oregon on its website and mentioning that students are able to do their homework while donating. Around a third of the donors at that Eugene center are estimated to be under the age of 24.
It’s a popular approach, with ABC News reporting that 94 percent of the plasma in the world comes from the U.S.  It’s a $16.8 billion global industry that is still growing. Not surprisingly, four-fifths of the nation’s plasma centers are found in poor neighborhoods. The plasma is used for therapies to treat various diseases.”

     As part of the false debate about Chinese influence in Australia (they own the place already), “our” universities are shaking in their panties, fearing that academics could get caught in the “anti-treason net”:
http://www.theaustralian.com.au/higher-education/universities-alarmed-new-treason-laws-could-target-academics/news-story/af896886be03dd1c9517536e4cd70be1

“Universities are alarmed that academics receiving foreign cash could be targeted by the new treason laws and are seeking urgent assurances from the government.
Peak group Universities Australia said the sector might even campaign to amend the legislation.
Government sources confirmed academics might have to register publicly as foreign agents if, for example, they received a scholarship where funding was given on the condition that the researcher would write a paper for the purposes of influencing Australian politics.
Further, the sources said an academic, university head or executive of an institution receiving foreign funds could be forced to register if they engaged in political lobbying, or communications activities in Australia aimed at shaping policy.”

     The latest paranoia about Russia to do the mainstream media rounds, is that Russia could bring about an economic collapse of the West by destroying underwater internet cables:
http://www.zerohedge.com/news/2017-12-17/congress-may-enact-bolt-and-wire-cutter-sanctions-russia-after-putin-threatens-under

     Oh, quick, let’s go to war against Russia, so that they actually do this!  In fact, China with its advanced subs could easily destroy the cables as well. The high tech society is inevitably vulnerable to such attacks, and there is little that can be done about it.  Banning bolt cutters, will not help!

     I have written about this before, but I say it again now, since Mike Adams’ site is now saying the same thing:
https://www.naturalnews.com/2017-12-17-has-the-metoo-movement-gone-too-far-innocent-men-can-now-have-their-whole-lives-destroyed-without-a-shred-of-evidence.html

“With the sudden growth of the so-called #MeToo movement, which is prompting scores of women to level sometimes decades-old charges of sexual assault against a variety of male public figures, entertainers, and corporate executives, one has to stop and ask this question: Has this all gone too far, too fast?
Some people are beginning to think so, especially since just an accusation nowadays is all it takes for someone to lose their livelihood — and that is significant (and scary) in a country whose justice system was built upon the premise of innocence until proven guilty.”

     Aaaaaaaaah…. summer’s here and that’s time for Aussies to follow the grand tradition of going to the beach. Sun, sand … and gangs, ready to bash your head in:

“A large group of youths have allegedly bashed and robbed beach goers in a wild brawl on the St Kilda foreshore in the early hours of Thursday morning.
Police said they struggled to contain the violent scenes as young people of African appearance fought each other and assaulted bystanders just before 3am.”

     Here is some interesting reading about how the law class, of judges and socially active lawyers, undermined Proposition 187, which would have stopped welfare benefits to illegal aliens, and instead transformed California into a minority white state. There is a lesson in this for all people in the West, about how immigration changes a country forever.  California is now part of Mexico, and the elites love the cheap non-unionised labour:

     The main close range weapon in the Neolithic age was the wooden club, probably the first human weapon. The spear involved a bit more engineering, and came later. The club could be a big chunk of wood, picked up off the ground.

     Archaeologists interested in head injuries exhibited in skulls of over 5,500 years ago, have investigated, using synthetic skulls typically used in wound ballistic tests of firearms, the likely types of injuries:

     I have written previously, that the present moral panic and outing of so-called sexual predators, is part of an agenda to ultimately take down Trump, by creating a hyper-paranoid culture of fear. We can see numerous photographs of actresses who have claimed sexual abuse, laughing with the alleged abusers.  Why was the crime left unreported for years?  Doesn’t this leave other women open to predatation? Isn’t there a moral duty to report such alleged crimes? Some actresses say that in doing so would have affected their careers. What! So you put your career over helping other women, and preventing them too becoming victims of sexual assault.

     In these situations, while there are always numerous genuine cases, there is though, often a less than hidden agenda. The agenda is to get Trump. After all, it was attempted before, and he is weak in the women area, and thus vulnerable:

http://www.zerohedge.com/news/2017-12-15/scheme-pay-trump-accusers-emerges-one-woman-was-offered-750000
     Well, that explains it. Trump had better get ready for the next storm that is blowing his way.

     My grandmother was an orphan and her mother left her at a Catholic orphanage to be brought up by the nuns, until foster parents claimed her. In fact, grandmother had a twin sister, who the nuns separated. Nanna told me that the nuns were viciously cruel, burning naughty girls with hot water, and whipping them. She thought that they derived sadistic enjoyment from it. In school, for the slightest infringement, or even not getting sums right, the girls would be caned on the hands. During piano lessons, to fluff a note would lead to a cane strike on the hands, which would lead to the next cane stick, and finally to some full body torture.

     I do not know exactly when these events took place, but it was probably 100 years ago. The world has changed a lot since then, for the better, hasn’t it?

     Here is something new, a book review to be done on a book not yet published, which I have not even read: Steven Pinker, Enlightenment Now: The Case for Reason, Science, Humanism, and Progress, February 27, 2018. The book apparently argues that everything is getting better, we are safer, more peaceful, happier and so on. It’s all done by looking at statistics. I suppose that his concern is with Americans, rather than places of social anarchy as in most of Africa, which would refute his thesis. Likewise for rape in Sweden.

     But, that is the problem with naïve empiricism, which looks at statistics rather than looking through them. It is like a friend I met, who told me that he felt in the best condition of his life, then went home and died of a stroke. The fact is that official statistics does not capture those issues that concern us. It does not even capture much of crime, such as organised ethnic crime and corruption. And, most importantly, the world situation could change overnight, with one EMP strike, showing not the “better angels of our nature,” but Hobbe’s nature red in tooth and claw:

     We have come to accept that even if you are 90 or 100 years old, if you say something politically incorrect, then you will be smashed. This is what tyrannical regimes do; it is the modern Inquisition. However, if you are old, it is not just thought crimes that you need to be aware of:
http://www.orlandosentinel.com/news/crime/os-juanita-fitzgerald-arrested-evicted-20171214-story.html

“Juanita Fitzgerald was spared having to spend her 94th birthday in the Lake County jail when she was released Thursday after having been locked up for two days in the medical ward.
The trouble started when Fitzgerald was evicted Tuesday from the senior housing community at the National Church Residences’ Franklin House in Eustis.  Police said she was given notice of her eviction the day before, but she refused to leave the lobby.
“Unless you carry me out of here, I’m not going anywhere,” she told police before being arrested Tuesday morning, the report shows.
Lake County sheriff’s spokesman Fred Jones said a deputy on the scene tried to connect Fitzgerald with family members and other housing resources, but she refused. He added that she also rejected an offer of a place to stay from a nurse who was there.
Eustis police showed up shortly after the eviction notice was served. Spokesman Jim Franquiz said officers offered several options to find housing for her elsewhere, but Fitzgerald did not want to move.
On Thursday, Fitzgerald was released from jail by a judge on her own recognizance and was being turned over to a caregiver, Lake County Sheriff’s Office spokesman John Herrell said.”

     How about this for a movie plot? A mad scientist invents a device which allegedly gives the masses entertainment value, but which later is revealed to be killing them. People start dying out. Maybe they come back as zombies; maybe not. Anyway, apocalypse. But wait, it is not a movie:
https://www.naturalnews.com/2017-12-15-cellphones-driving-modern-humans-to-the-brink-of-insanity-new-science.html

“As it turns out, the mass poisoning of human brains with cellphone radiation has only been going on for a generation or so. It may be the common cause behind the insanity, and California health authorities have just confirmed this possibility by issuing new warnings about the adverse brain effects of cellphone radiation exposure.
“The research suggests cellphones could increase our risk for brain cancer and tumors, low sperm count, headaches, as well as impaired memory, hearing, and sleep,” reports CBS News / San Francisco. In other words, cellphone radiation has been found to directly interfere with normal brain function, leading people to demonstrate abnormal cognitive function. This, combined with the brain-warping harmful effects of social media, seems to have driven our society to the brink of runaway mental illness across the masses.
Just as the Romans destroyed their civilization with the help of lead poisoning in the water aqueducts, we may be destroying our own civilization by frying all our brains with cellphone radiation (and thereby driving our people insane).”

     Europe has been told that it must have unending immigration. But, when the migrants go and do this, well, is it a problem for the demographic replacement program? Could the replacements be more trouble than the passive natives being replaced?

     More bad news, but at this late time in civilisational collapse, it is to be expected. In America’s version of the same sex marriage vote, pro-abortion, and all-round political corrector Democrat Doug Jones beat conservative Alt Right candidate Judge Moore. The establishment, and our old friends, poured money into this to make an example of Moore. It was a show of power, with the standard New World Order overlords playing the game, as usual:
http://www.breitbart.com/big-government/2017/10/26/doug-jones-pushed-felon-voting-rights-soros-funded-org/

     Black men voted 93 percent Dumbocrat,  6 percent Moore; Black women 98 percent Demobat, less than 2 percent Moore, which is higher than their vote for Obama. Who says race does not matter? Only brainwashed whites.

     Mike Adams has been keeping us informed about all aspects of the Bitcoin bubble and its coming crash.  What I find interesting is how the Bitcoin young folk, who have invested their money, maintain the faith even in the face of a coming crash.  Sure, it will go down, but it will go back up again.  Yet, the false premise here is that the gangster banksters are going to let that happen.  Already, there are moves underway across the world to control crypto currencies and pull them into central control:

     What took the liberal elites so long to get to their destination? Clearly, their aim with the sexual moral panic over men in power asking actresses/women for sex, something that goes on in millions of bars right across the West every night, was to work up to having another go at taking down Donald Trump.  It did not work in the election, but now, well, it is worth a go.  It was tried to bring Judge Moore to his knees and get him to pull out of the Alabama election. Instead, Moore basically told the chattering class where to go and pressed on.  But, the moral panic was enough among white women to cost him the election, narrowly.

     In one region of Germany, the unemployment of migrant arrivals tops 96 percent, and yet more, more, more are brought in:
http://www.breitbart.com/london/2017/12/03/less-four-percent-migrants-found-jobs-german-district/

     No doubt, it is a small social cost to pay for the ultimate demographic displacement of native Germans. No amount of bombings, rapes or terrorism seems to bring the message home to the cucked German people about what is going on.

     I studied philosophy for a bit over a year, before dropping out, when I did an Arts degree at a mid-level US university. As a freshman, I had hoped that this discipline would help with the big questions, such as the meaning of life, and the existence of God, but I was very disappointed. At best, philosophy was engaged in technicalities that led nowhere; at worst, it was just another attack on traditionalism, but going deeper than the Social Sciences, attacking our common sense view of reality, such as that we have free will, minds and souls. All of this is done to support the ruling ideology of reductionist materialism.

     Not all philosophers though, go for the establishment line. Richard Cocks has published two papers at Sydneytrads.com, discussing the illogical nature of philosophers, with respect to the issue of determinism. If the thesis of determinism – that every event has a cause, sufficient for its explanation, running back in an endless chain of causes – and if this thesis is inconsistent with the existence of free will, then how is the reasoning leading to acceptance of the determinist thesis acceptable?
