Here is yet another article which charts the doomsday progression of a country into the uncharted waters of chaos and collapse. What happens when national identity is drained away, like a person having their life-blood extracted?

“Regarding France in 2019, it can no longer be denied that a momentous and hazardous transformation, a 'Great Switch', is in the making", observed the founder and president of the Jean-Jacques Rousseau Institute, Michel Gurfinkiel. He was mourning "the passing of France as a distinct country, or at least as the Western, Judeo-Christian nation it had hitherto been presumed to be". A recent cover story in the weekly Le Point called it "the great upheaval". Switch or upheaval, the days of France as we knew it are numbered: the society has lost its cultural center of gravity: the old way of life is fading and close to "extinction". "Frenchness" is disappearing and being replaced by a kind balkanization of enclaves not communicating with one another. For the country most affected by Islamic fundamentalism and terrorism, this is not a good recipe. The French switch is also becoming geographical. France now appears split between "ghettos for the rich" and "ghettos for the poor", according to an analysis of the electoral map by France's largest newspaper, Le Monde. "In the poorest sector, 6 out of 10 newly settled households have a person born abroad", notes Le Monde. A kind of abyss now separates peripheral France -- small towns, suburbs and rural areas – from the globalized metropolis of the "bourgeois Bohemians", or "bobos". The more the French élites with their disposable incomes and cultural leisure cloister themselves in their enclaves, the less likely it is that they will understand the everyday impact of failed mass immigration and multiculturalism.

     With the demonic Deep State needing war with Russia to satisfy their psychopathic desire for killing, with drones being shot down and other fun things, it is only a matter of time before the big fireworks start.  Assuming that things do not go full nuclear too soon, which is improbable, what is the likely result? Clearly another reason to flood the West with trillions of refugees. Just ask Vlad the lad:

“Following China's warning this week that the United States is poised to open "Pandora's Box" in the Middle East should it escalate military action against Iran, Russia's President Vladimir Putin has weighed in, on Thursday saying any American military strike would have "catastrophic" consequences. Putin warned further that US attack "would trigger a surge in violence and a possible refugee exodus," according to Reuters. During an annual televised question and answer session hosted by the Russian leader, he reiterated Moscow's position that Tehran is in full compliance with its nuclear commitments under the 2015 JCPOA. He also slammed the US-imposed sanctions now choking the Iranian economy as "groundless". "I want to say at once that this would be a catastrophe for the region" — Putin said.”

     Regular readers will know that as a former soldier, divorced, and a typically alienated older male, Anglo Saxon, dispossessed etc. I live, and thus sleep in a tent. But, I am not the only one doing this. Here is a great video by athlete Rich Roll who puts the case for a natural Stoic approach to life which emphasises basic natural living and food (mainly vegetables) and the need for sleep for human quality in an insanely paced world. He found that sleeping in a tent improved his sleep, wellbeing and overall efficiency. I concur, totally. I am not sure how his wife likes it. Still, when I was married I used to sleep on the floor, after doing the martial duties, so people work it out. Where there is a will,  there is a way.

     Leftists outside of the New York Times, protesting? Whatever has the politically correct world come to!
  https://www.theguardian.com/environment/2019/jun/22/new-york-times-protest-climate-crisis-coverage

“A climate change protest orchestrated by the Extinction Rebellion activist group briefly blocked Eighth Avenue in New York on Saturday afternoon, between the Port Authority transit hub and the home of the New York Times. The New York police department (NYPD) said 70 people were arrested as they called for more effective media coverage of the dangers of climate change, in a dramatic demonstration that saw people stage a die-in in front of the newspaper building and disrupt traffic in midtown Manhattan. Two demonstrators scaled the front of the Port Authority building, which houses a major bus terminal and subway interchange, to hang a protest banner. Protesters also climbed on to the canopy outside the Times headquarters and unfurled a banner that encouraged the use of the phrase “climate emergency” instead of “climate change”. One protester, Donna Nicolino, told the Guardian she was ready to be arrested, because “we want the New York Times as well as all the other media to treat climate change as the crisis it is”. She joined a line of people with arms linked on West 40th Street and Eighth Avenue, blocking the road. The group remained until they were arrested by New York City police officers. “The lack of coverage of the climate crisis is completely unacceptable,” said Becca Trabin, a member of Extinction Rebellion’s press and fundraising teams. “It’s a public safety crisis on a global scale.”

“A migrant suspected of raping and sexually abusing a much younger girl claims that he did not know it was illegal in Sweden because no-one had told him. The suspected sexual abuse took place in April of this year at a family home with the young girl, whose exact age has not been revealed. It is alleged she was forced to have sex with the supposedly 17-year-old migrant, newspaper Lokaltidningen reports. When questioned, the migrant reportedly admitted that he had sex with the young girl but said that it had not been a crime and was just something that “happened between two children.” In an Administrative court, it was argued that while the migrant did admit to the crime he was not aware of the laws regarding sexual relations and that no-one in Sweden had taught him what the laws and expected norms were. The representative argued that the court should not proceed with a prosecution, claiming that the young man had been doing well in school and that his school progress would be harmed if he were to be prosecuted.”

     A Catholic school is charging ahead with the gender agenda, allowing boys to wear skirts, and sure they are all going to do it to be the new cool, because society tells them to:
  https://www.lifesitenews.com/news/catholic-school-in-ireland-will-allow-boy-students-to-wear-skirts

“A Catholic school in Ireland announced its new gender-neutral uniform policy for elementary-level pupils that allows girls to wear pants and boys to wear skirts starting in September. St. Brigid’s National School is located in Greystones, a small town near Dublin. The school will allow cross-dressing for its elementary students in order to confirm with transgender ideology. School principal Máire Costello said, according to the Irish Times, that the school’s student council was behind the idea, which was welcomed by the school board and parents. Costello told the paper that the school has students who are “questioning their sexual identity” at an earlier age. Even though St. Brigid’s National School is publicly funded, it’s under the ultimate authority of Dublin Archbishop Diarmuid Martin. Until the change was announced, school policy required boys to wear gray pants and a green sweater. Girls were required to wear a green tartan pinafore. Upon returning to school in September, pupils will be able to choose the clothing they like regardless of their sex.

“Keeping physically and mentally active in middle age may be tied to a lower risk of developing dementia decades later, according to a study published in the February 20, 2019, online issue of Neurology®, the medical journal of the American Academy of Neurology. Mental activities included reading, playing instruments, singing in a choir, visiting concerts, gardening, doing needlework or attending religious services. “These results indicate that these activities in middle age may play a role in preventing dementia in old age and preserving cognitive health,” said study author Jenna Najar, MD, from the University of Gothenburg in Sweden. “It’s exciting as these are activities that people can incorporate into their lives pretty easily and without a lot of expense.” The study involved 800 Swedish women with an average age of 47 who were followed for 44 years. At the beginning of the study, participants were asked about their mental and physical activities. Mental activities included intellectual activities, such as reading and writing; artistic activities, such as going to a concert or singing in a choir; manual activities, such as needlework or gardening; club activities; and religious activity.

     The idea of organ harvesting in China was once dismissed as a racist fantasy, but now has been accepted in the mainstream, and that’s that, because China just does what it wants. Well, let it; good for them. But now candy Canada is following in its harvesting footsteps, which is a bit surprising:
  https://www.lifesitenews.com/news/30-euthanasia-victims-in-canada-have-had-their-organ-harvested-since-2016

“Organs are being harvested from some people who have been euthanized in Canada, creating an ethical situation that some critics say amounts to a conflict of interest. On June 18, The Wall Street Journal published an article by law professor Frank Buckley revealing that “about 30 euthanasia patients in Canada have donated their organs after death since 2016.” Buckley noted that the Canadian Medical Association (CMA) has issued guidelines for how the harvesting of organs from people who elect to be killed by medical practitioners should work. Despite some hand-wringing about ethics, the June 3 document allows doctors to canvas their vulnerable, suicidal patients for their organs. “The grim document describes how the organ donation and euthanasia decisions might be disentangled, but allows doctors to raise the possibility of organ donation with their vulnerable, suicidal patients,” he wrote. “It also clarifies that organ removal should not begin until the patient is medically deceased (sic) and the heart has stopped beating.”

     Will Australia and the rest of the West end up like California? Yes, it is only a matter of time given existing trends, so we need to be prepared for the inevitable crash, as occurred right throughout history. Yes, it is sad, but that is what happens when a people embrace decadence and the diversity mania, and California is the leading edge of this madness. Individuals can be insane, raving lunatics in fact, but until recently we would not have thought that entire states and countries could be clinically insane. But, California is stark raving mad. Thus, while native Californians are homeless in record numbers, while the streets are littered with human excreta, this bankrupt state now is giving health benefits to illegals, dragging the state further into the economic cesspool, and of course, becoming a magnet for infinity illegals.

     Pigs worry me, not to upset any pig farmers out there; indeed, I grew up on a Victorian piggery, and love pigs, the smell is not so bad. I have even been known to eat a meat pie with sauce while at the old-style abattoirs markets. But there are a lot of diseases that can jump from pigs to humans, especially in China. Pigs are also highly vulnerable to disease in the tight living conditions they are put in:
  https://www.zerohedge.com/news/2019-06-11/biggest-animal-disease-outbreak-ever-has-already-killed-millionsand-theres-no-way

“We have never seen an animal disease outbreak like this before, and it is rapidly getting worse.  African Swine Fever, also referred to as “pig Ebola”, has already wiped out millions upon millions of pigs and it continues to spread to even more countries. There is no vaccine and there is no cure, and so essentially we don’t have any way to stop this disease.  At this point, the only solution is to kill all the pigs wherever the virus is found and desperately hope that it doesn’t spread anywhere else.  But that approach clearly hasn’t been working, and according to a recent Fox News report this epidemic has now become the “biggest animal disease outbreak we’ve ever had on the planet”… “This is the biggest animal disease outbreak we’ve ever had on the planet,” Dirk Pfeiffer, a veterinary epidemiologist at City University of Hong Kong and swine fever expert, said. “It makes the foot and mouth disease and [mad cow disease] outbreaks pale in comparison to the damage that is being done. And we have no way to stop it from spreading.”

China is the epicenter for this outbreak, and it is also home to half of all the pigs in the world. Actually, to be more accurate, I should say that it used to be home to half of all the pigs in the world. In a normal year, China slaughters approximately 700 million pigs.  But according to Rabobank, that number will be down 30 percent this year due to this outbreak… Researchers at Rabobank are estimating that this year China will suffer a 30% loss in pork production as a result of ASF. To put that into perspective, that 30% loss in production is equivalent to Europe’s entire annual pork supply, and almost 30% larger than U.S. annual pork production. So let’s do some quick math. 30 percent of 700 million is 210 million. Let that sink in for a moment.  210 million pigs will be lost in China alone in 2019, and when you throw in the rest of the world we are talking about cataclysmic losses already and the outbreak is still getting worse. One of the primary reasons why this virus is so fearsome is because it survives just about anywhere and it is incredibly hard to kill…

The germ is hardy, capable of remaining active in water for a month, in meat and blood at room temperature for several months and for six years in cold, dark conditions. It’s resistant to temperature extremes, and can survive a day in vinegar-strength acids. Even if we had an effective treatment, attempting to eradicate this disease would be a complete and utter nightmare. But as I stated earlier, there is no vaccine and there is no cure. All we can do is keep killing pigs. But of course global demand for pork just continues to grow as the global population increases. So with increasing demand and rapidly falling supply, it was inevitable that pork prices would begin to rise substantially…

The implications of the outbreak are already being felt beyond Asia. Global pork prices have risen by almost 40%, and long term it is likely to lead to more pork imports from Europe and America to meet demand, which will also push up global meat prices. And what we have seen so far is just the beginning.  In fact, China’s Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Affairs is now telling us that the price of pork is likely to rise 70 percent by the end of 2019. Of course if this disease continues to spread, we could be talking about an epidemic that could literally end the global pork industry as we know it today. Already, there is a tremendous amount of paranoia about the spread of this virus, and for good reason.  In fact, the virus has been found “in Chinese pork products that were confiscated by customs officials in Japan, South Korea and Australia”…

But the virus has been in Chinese pork products that were confiscated by customs officials in Japan, South Korea and Australia, suggesting that the virus has permeated the food chain in China. And could it be possible that pork products tainted with the disease were able to slip through the inspection process in various countries? We don’t know. But what we do know is that African Swine Fever has been spreading all over Asia. It has now spread to Mongolia, Cambodia, Hong Kong, North Korea and Vietnam.  In fact, it is now being projected that Vietnam will lose 10% of its pork production this year…

Rabobank is projecting that Vietnam, which in May mobilized its military in the fight against the disease, will lose 10% of its pork production. Today, pork accounts for three-quarters of all meat consumption in the nation of Vietnam.  This disease is already a major national crisis in that country, and we are still in the very early stages of this outbreak. Meanwhile, this virus is starting to pop up in Europe as well.  According to one report, the disease was just identified at a major pig farm in Poland…

A farm with more than 8,000 pigs in Poland has broke with African swine fever. According to the World Organization for Animal Health, the farm is located in Bielsk Podlaskie near the border with Belarus. And in Denmark, they have actually constructed a 43-mile border fence in order to keep out wild boar. It is a good thing that they are taking this threat so seriously, because African Swine Fever is incredibly deadly.  Up to 90 percent of the pigs that catch the virus end up dead, and once it starts spreading on a pig farm it is inevitable that all of the survivors will have to be killed as well in order to help prevent the spread of the disease. Unfortunately, most people in the western world still don’t seem to understand the seriousness of what we are facing.  Essentially, what we are dealing with is an existential threat to the entire global pork industry. And considering the fact that we really struggle to produce enough food for the entire planet in a good year, this should be a major wake up call for all of us.”

     If pig Ebola does a species jump, as happens, we will have on hand an already distributed pandemic, resulting in the arrival of the long-awaited zombie apocalypse. After all, most people today are little more than slightly sophisticated pigs, or even battery chooks, living in the pens of modernity, I am sorry to say. Humanity would die like the pigs:

     I saw a protest about China’s alleged organ harvesting by very nervous Chinese, many wearing masks. The masks were to protect their identity from the communist spies here in Australia, one girl told me.

  https://www.breitbart.com/asia/2019/06/19/report-suggests-china-preparing-muslims-concentration-camps-organ-harvesting/

“A nonpartisan tribunal published a report Tuesday accusing China of “crimes against humanity,” cutting organs out of Falun Gong practitioners alive to transplant into paying clients, and potentially preparing an “organ bank” using the millions of mostly Uighur Muslims believed trapped in concentration camps in western China. The China Tribunal – a panel of international legal experts led by Sir Geoffrey Nice, chief prosecutor in the case against Serbian war criminal Slobodan Miloševic – held hearings featuring victims of China’s brutal repression of Falun Gong practitioners and ethnic Uighurs as well as eyewitnesses who testified to seeing and participating in organ testing and harvesting. The tribunal repeatedly highlighted in its report that it attempted to contact the Chinese government and bring in witnesses favorable to the Chinese Communist Party (CCP), but China failed to cooperate. It concluded that China is currently harvesting organs from Falun Gong practitioners and has begun extensive testing of its captive Uighur camp population that does not have any other overt utility outside of organ harvesting. It also concluded that “some Tibetan Buddhists and House Church Christians” (those who do not worship in government-run churches) have likely suffered forced organ harvesting. Perhaps most shockingly, the Tribunal noted that its investigators reached out to dozens of Chinese hospitals asking for help in finding organs for a transplant, and over a dozen of them openly stated they were currently using the organs of Falun Gong practitioners in transplants or could acquire them. Another 14 hospitals admitted they used organs illicitly harvested from prisoners, but did not specify if they were political prisoners or common convicts.

“Madonna revealed she would like a meeting with Pope Francis in a wide-ranging interview with Andrew Denton, which aired on Tuesday night. In a candid episode of Andrew Denton's Interview, the 60-year-old told the Australian journalist that she'd be interested in sitting down with the head of the Catholic Church at the Vatican to discuss what Jesus thought about women's rights. If she had a chance to speak to the pope, Madonna said she'd ask: 'Let's talk about Jesus' point of view about women. Let's talk about it.'”

     I am in such a state of mental decline due to psycho-political psychosis that I even typed my own name wrong, but I really like “Jammers,” so let it stay for today. I will even wear my baseball cap sideways, not back-to-front, starting a new trend, yeah, cool and other buzz words, like “global warming.” And speaking of buzz and fuzz, what’s new with the climate change hokum? Glad you asked:

“Alan Jones has responded after being attacked on the ABC last night. Q and A featured a stacked panel of climate change scientists who went after Alan, despite him not even being on the panel. A question was asked by a television viewer, with CSIRO scientist Professor David Karoly responding with, “Not everything Jones says is factually accurate.” Despite admitting that many of Alan’s statistics are in fact correct, Professor Karoly continued the attack. “I am a climate scientist, and Alan Jones is wrong.” Alan has defended himself, saying it was a “stacked outfit” on the program, not designed for debate but to further their agenda. He also spoke with Swedish climate scientist Dr Nils Axel-Morner who says it’s “completely nonsense” to claim sea levels are rising and carbon is bad.”

     Google has now exceeded itself in censorship banning use of the word “honk”:
  https://summit.news/2019/06/10/facebook-says-using-the-word-honk-violates-its-community-standards/

“Facebook removed a post which consisted simply of the word “honk,” asserting that it was a violation of their community standards. Yes, really. The use of the word stems from the ‘clown world’ meme – a nihilistic position many on the right are taking in light of a society in the grip of ‘progressive’ degeneracy run amok. Apparently, it’s now verboten to even allude to the meme on Facebook. The fact that Facebook is now ruthlessly enforcing its far-left ideology across its own platform cannot be denied. Over the weekend, the Silicon Valley giant banned Natural News, which had 2.5 million followers on the platform, just hours after leftist website the Daily Beast published a hit piece against its owner Mike Adams. Last month, Facebook banned yours truly along with a number of other conservative commentators for no specific reason whatsoever. Facebook is now clearly operating as a publisher not a platform in violation of the Telecommunications Act of 1996 and is engaging in flagrant election meddling. Will the Trump administration do anything about it or will his base continue to be placated by meaningless tweets which aren’t followed by any real action?”

     I have always admired the Japanese, and visited Japan a number of times to study karate and judo in the 1980s. I was treated poorly being white, and I hold no resentment against them whatsoever, for it was me who was the cultural invader, not them. Having a bit of money at the time (1980s) I obtained a first-class katana (Samurai sword) which I sold to a friend in Queensland, since swords in Victoria have been banned, showing how enlightened we are compared to the highly cultured Japanese. Anyway, things look bad for these noble folks too:
  https://japantoday.com/category/national/nearly-50-of-japan's-singles-have-no-dating-prospects-gov't-survey

“Almost half of singles in Japan who wish to get married are unable to find a suitable partner, with 61.4 percent of the group stating they are not doing anything to change the situation, a government survey showed Tuesday. A lack of opportunity to meet an appropriate partner, or not having enough financial resources or ability to get along with the opposite sex are cited as major reasons in the outcome of the survey included in its annual report on Japan's declining birthrate that was approved by the Cabinet in the morning. The Cabinet Office online survey of around 4,000 men and women aged between 20 to 40 years old, conducted last December, found that 46.8 percent of respondents say they cannot find a suitable partner despite a desire to tie the knot. The outcome prompted the government to recognize the need to continue measures supporting marriage amid the country's rapidly aging population. A separate government survey released earlier this month showed the number of newborns in Japan hitting a record-low 918,397 in 2018, staying below the 1 million mark for the third year in a row. On Tuesday, the cabinet also approved an annual report on children and young people, in which it showed that 48.5 percent of 13- to 29-year-olds disagree that men should be the breadwinner while women stay at home, while 14.6 percent agree. The results of an online survey with 1,134 respondents, carried out last November and December, reflect a shifting mindset among Japan's youth. The same study conducted five years earlier showed 38.7 percent in disagreement and 22.3 percent in agreement."

     So out-of-control has US border insecurity become that even African illegals are coming in record numbers. Go figure; they must get on planes to South America, and then get taken to the US border by our friendly neighbours. Where is the money coming to fund this invasion? Guess who?
  https://www.breitbart.com/news/record-number-of-african-migrants-coming-to-mexican-border/

“Undaunted by a dangerous journey over thousands of miles, people fleeing economic hardship and human rights abuses in African countries are coming to the U.S.-Mexico border in unprecedented numbers, surprising Border Patrol agents more accustomed to Spanish-speaking migrants. Officials in Texas and even Maine are scrambling to absorb the sharp increase in African migrants. They are coming to America after flying across the Atlantic Ocean to South America and then embarking on an often harrowing overland journey. In one recent week, agents in the Border Patrol’s Del Rio sector stopped more than 500 African migrants found walking in separate groups along the arid land after splashing across the Rio Grande, children in tow. That is more than double the total of 211 African migrants who were detained by the Border Patrol along the entire 2,000-mile (3,200-kilometer) U.S.-Mexico border in the 2018 fiscal year.
