Living in a shed, I have always been envious of my fellow homeless people who live in cars. Sure, you can’t get up and walk around, as one car liver said to me (someone living in a car, not his actual “liver”), but you can drive away, while this is a little difficult to do with a shed, but where there is a will there is a way.

“As the gap between the rich and the poor continues to increase, the middle class is steadily eroding.  In fact, I recently gave my readers 15 signs that the middle class in America is being systematically destroyed.  More Americans are falling out of the middle class and into poverty with each passing day, and this is one of the big reasons why the number of homeless is surging.  For example, the number of people living on the street in L.A. has shot up 75 percent over the last 6 years.  But of course L.A. is far from alone.  Other major cities on the west coast are facing similar problems, and that includes Seattle.  It turns out that the Emerald City has seen a 46 percent rise in the number of people sleeping in their vehicles in just the past year…

     The Left in the West are going through a rebirth period, reviving classical Marxism. I am working away on my lap top at my old university here in dusty old Melbourne, and outside this room posters about Karl Marx are everywhere. Who financed that, George? And, what would old Karl have thought about gender fluidity? Anyway, that is the world in the day care centre of the university. In the real world, socialist places like Venezuela have a much grimmer outlook:

“The democratic socialist nation of Venezuela’s collapse is showing just how far people will go in order to escape the horrors of big government. In fact, the situation in Venezuela has gotten so bad that women are willing to risk being sexually abused in human trafficking rings in order to escape the horrors of socialism. Unfortunately, the harsh reality of government is bearing down on real people and making life incredibly miserable for those stuck in Venezuela.  It’s also no walk in the park for those who have managed to escape.  The Washington Post detailed one woman’s plight, and it’s a disturbing an harrowing tale:

     Why is there such a concern here about the inevitability of ethno-racial and cultural change? Surely it is obvious that migrants are needed to work as IT experts and in the rocket industry to pay for the pensions and health care of the baby boomers?

“New unemployment figures show that the heavily migrant populated southern Swedish city of Malmö has an average unemployment rate twice that of the rest of the country. The unemployment rate across Sweden has seen an average decrease since the last Swedish national election in 2014, but Malmö has been the exception, Swedish newspaper Sydsvenskan reports. The city’s rate of unemployment is said to top a staggering 14 percent, making the city on par with countries like Spain, which has a 16 percent unemployment rate, and behind Italy, which is at 11 percent. Josef Lannemyr, an analyst at the Swedish Employment Service, lamented that many of the jobs in the city required a post-secondary education and that the pool of talent for such jobs simply was not there.”

     Talk about a doomsday run today, but that is the news out there, and real men report it. If a team of killers were waiting  at your house to kill you, would you want to know this “bad” news, or should I talk abut the football for this weekend? Ok, right answer, now to killer robots:
  http://www.shtfplan.com/headline-news/mark-cuban-on-ai-if-you-dont-think-a-terminator-will-appear-youre-crazy_07312018

“Billionaire Mark Cuban didn’t hold back when he recently discussed the dangers of artificial intelligence.  Refusing to mince words, Cuban said, “Let me scare the s— out of you, all right? If you don’t think by the time most of you are in your mid-40s that a Terminator will appear, you’re crazy.” Cuban is a billionaire entrepreneur, a star of the ABC reality show “Shark Tank” and the owner of the Dallas Mavericks basketball team. He is also certain that a version of the Terminator is coming thanks to the advancements in artificial intelligence and robotics weaponry. Speaking to an audience of high school students at the High School Leadership Summit Turning Point USA event in Washington D.C., Cuban laid down several serious warnings about the future of artificial intelligence and among them was a reference to the 1984 movie, “The Terminator,” starring Arnold Schwarzenegger as a cyborg assassin. “For weaponry, we already have the ability to have weapons think… They’re only going to go further and further as technology progresses,” declared Cuban, according to Observer. “If we don’t win this battle, the world is going to be upside down and that scares the shit out of me.”

     This has created a precedent: a UK court recognising sharia law in a judgment:
  http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-6018133/Landmark-ruling-sees-British-court-recognise-sharia-law-time.html 
  https://www.breitbart.com/london/2018/08/02/court-recognises-shariah-law-marriage-uk-legal-first/

“In a legal first, a British High Court judge has recognised a shariah marriage when ruling on a ‘divorce’ petition of a Muslim woman, likely setting a precedent on the acceptance of Islamic marriages and divorces in the UK.
Mr Justice Williams ruled that an estranged Muslim couple’s Islamic marriage does fall under the scope of the 1973 Matrimonial Causes Act and that they could, therefore, ‘divorce’ — despite the couple never having had a legal civil ceremony, reports The Guardian. Nasreen Akhter and Mohammed Shabaz Khan, both of Pakistani heritage, had ‘married’ in an Islamic nikah ceremony conducted by an imam in 1998 in West London, and Mr Khan, a businessman, was said by Ms Akhter to have “always introduced me as his wife”. Ms Akhter attempted to file for divorce, which her partner rejected, with Mr Khan saying that they were not legally married, but only under Islamic law."

     Is humanity prepared for the coming pandemic? It is inevitable that in the concentrated sweathouses of humanity, called modern diverse societies, disease will rise and strike, like an enraged cobra.

  https://www.theorganicprepper.com/clade-x-virus-kill-900-million-people/

“Researchers from the Johns Hopkins Center for Health Security designed a frighteningly realistic scenario to see how prepared the government is for a global pandemic, and the exercise showed how woefully unprepared we are for such a situation. The researchers came up with a scenario that included a disease that could realistically exist and tested it to see how it would play out in a world that contains the same resources that we have today. In the simulation, a committee met to advise the president and discuss how to respond to the imaginary virus around one month after it had first appeared, striking 400 people and killing 50. The parainfluenza virus Clade X was bioengineered and released by a fictional group whose goal was reducing the world population. They were modeled after the cult that released sarin gas on the Tokyo subway in 1995. Those struck by the virus suffered from confusion, fever and coughing, with many also experiencing brain swelling that plunged them into a potentially deadly coma.

     It is important, when one is winning to keep up the pace and keep pushing, pushing and pushing some more:
  https://www.independent.co.uk/news/paedophilia-sexual-orientation-straight-gay-criminal-psychologist-child-sex-abuse-a6965956.html

“Paedophilia is a “sexual orientation” like being straight or gay, according to a criminal psychologist. The idea that sexual attraction to children is an “orientation” is highly controversial as it suggests that offenders cannot change. But, writing on the Reddit networking website, the psychologist said it was possible to treat child sex abusers on “the understanding that the attraction may always remain”. The psychologist set up the “ask me anything” thread on Reddit. Their identity was not revealed but was verified by the website. Asked “can paedophiles actually change?”, the expert wrote: “I believe Paedophilic Disorder is a sexual orientation with individual that are attracted to child features. In other words, an individual with paedophilia has the same ingrained attraction that a heterosexual female may feel towards a male, or a homosexual feels towards their same gender. “With that being said, it needs to be said that sexuality is more of a spectrum than a finite category. We know that heterosexuals may engage in homosexual behaviour, and deny they are bisexual or homosexual. “We know that individuals with paedophilia may engage in sexual behaviour with adults. For some, they may use this as a cognitive distortion to explain away their sexualisation of prepubescent children.”

     Freedom, for those of us that no longer have it, such as free speech in a multicult jungle, is a rare gem. But, can there be too much of a good thing? Perhaps it is idle to speculate about such things, given the anarcho-tyranny that now suffocates us, but, I suppose there is still intellectual interest in the issue, the sort that prisoners must have in topics like transfinite set theory, while rotting in prison, waiting for the next form of abuse. Here is an interesting piece on libertarianism, a liberal position that takes freedom to its seeming limits, chasing free markets, and limited government:
  https://www.breitbart.com/radio/2018/08/01/henry-olsen-libertarianism-is-a-marxist-heresy-that-subverts-nations-to-markets/

“Henry Olsen, author of The Working Class Republican: Ronald Reagan and the Return of Blue-Collar Conservatism, described the “libertarian ideology” as a “religious faith” that dehumanizes people as commodities. “You can argue that libertarianism is a Marxist heresy, that where Marx said that the capitalist commodifies everything, the libertarian says, ‘Darn tootin,’” Olsen told Breitbart News Senior Editor-at-Large Rebecca Mansour on Monday’s Breitbart News Tonight on SiriusXM. Olsen framed libertarians as prioritizing economics over all other considerations: “Try and find somebody that doesn’t think tariffs are an abomination. You can’t find that person on the right [or] the left. I think this fundamental agreement about the international nature of the economy that seems to put politics, community, nation, and — dare I say — humanity as irrelevant concerns.”

     According to the magic of Google’s search engines, the leader of the free world, whatever that was, is Germany’s immigration crazed East German style communist Angela Merkel, who has transformed Germany into a modern version of  hell:
  https://www.breitbart.com/tech/2018/08/03/google-declares-angela-merkel-leader-of-the-free-world/

“Thanks to its reliance on information from Wikipedia, the top Google search result for “leader of the free world” is not the President of the United States, with whom the term is normally associated, but crisis-engulfed German Chancellor Angela Merkel. Searches for the term currently return a picture of Merkel as the top result, and two links to the Wikipedia page on “free world.” Immediately following those results is a CNN opinion piece stating that President Trump is “no longer leader of the free world.”

     Great hard-hitting journalism from Andrew Bolt on a topic that one of us usually covers each day; the changing demographics of the West, including Australian. Soon there will be “no us left,” and it will be tribalism or the way down:

“There is no “us” any more - or soon won’t be. Judith Sloan:
In 1996, there were 119,000 China-born residents living in Australia — 20 years later, it was 526,000... In 1996, there were 80,000 India-born people living in Australia. In 2016, the number was 469,000. Add the Left’s destruction of national symbols and its pushing of identity politics, and Australia is turning from a home into a hotel. It is true that the Chinese and Indian disaporas actually enrich us in many ways, and both have lower imprisonment rates than the rest of the community. Chinese names dominate the lists of high achievers in many university courses in accounting, maths, science and medicine.

     An academic industry exists in Australian universities, when they are not receiving blood money from the defence industry, or even when they are, to promote the joys of diversity. Much like the double standard in proclaiming their commitment to harmony and peace, while taking the money of the weapons industry (not in itself a bad thing from our perspective, but inconsistent with their politically correct Leftoid worldview), there is the double standard of diversity. Pluralism and diversity by definition always improve a society, because, well, Anglo Saxons are evil and must be demographically displaced. How else to make sense of the mantra running through the sewerage pumped daily into the minds of vulnerable students, at tax payer’s expense, that pre-1947 Australia was intrinsically flawed and only migration, and ultimate complete Asianisation can save the soul of the nation, hallelujah.

     Yet, with this academic narrative, which has generated jobs for substandard low IQ academics, we find stories of old hard reality, of the real world on the streets, outside the protected walls of the child care centre of the modern university:

     This may be something that we have not considered in the detail it deserves: China has exploited the ambiguous sovereignty of the Antarctic.

     Having relentlessly criticised the Pope for his globalism and pro-immigration sentiments, I am duty bound to report the good things that the Vatican does in the interests of fairness and balance. Here the Vatican is on the right track in recognising that the computer algorithms of the IT masters of the universe are devised to search their interests, not necessarily ours:
  https://www.breitbart.com/big-government/2018/08/05/vatican-algorithms-not-neutral-sequences-of-operations-but-serve-precise-aims/

“The Vatican voiced its concern over the production and use of personal data, “and the preponderant role of the algorithms that process the data and produce, in turn, additional data and information, at different levels, also available for those who intend to use it for purely commercial, propaganda or even manipulative purposes and strategies.” While the Vatican was dealing specifically with the use of digital equipment and online technologies by the tourism sector’s operators and users in its 2018 message for World Tourism Day, the Vatican department of Human Development also delved into more general concerns about the dangers of online data sharing and the unseen agendas behind the use of that data. “Algorithms, in fact, are not simple numbers and neutral sequences of operations,” said the message, which was signed by Cardinal Peter Turkson, “but rather elaborations of intentions that pursue precise aims and can be used to influence personal choices and decisions, and effect [sic] the formation of individual thought and consciousness.” “When technological tools become omnipresent, they do not favour the development of a capacity to live wisely, to think in depth, to love generously,” the message states.”

     The slightest offence against non-whites is pretty soon going to be met with the death penalty, but in some parts of the world Christians are exterminated, and the moral police in the West are silent. Since they now define what is right and wrong, that must mean that they are ok with this; otherwise why would people who have a politically correct hair trigger, not, well, explode into a burst of moral outrage?

  https://www.christianpost.com/news/christians-could-be-killed-off-in-nigeria-by-2043-if-massacres-continue-leaders-warn-225329/

“Nigerian Christian leaders have warned that if the current rate of massacres continue, with hundreds of believers being killed each month, Africa's most-populous nation is on the brink of decimating its Christian population by 2043. The warnings echoed as 86 more people were killed by the largely Muslim Fulani herdsmen in attacks on Christian farmers. The Punch on Sunday obtained comments by Bosun Emmanuel, the secretary of National Christian Elders Forum, at the recent conference of Catholic Men's Guild in Lagos, where the administration of President Muhammadu Buhari was accused of "openly pursuing an anti-Christian agenda that has resulted in countless murders of Christians all over the nation and destruction of vulnerable Christian communities." "Realistically speaking, Christianity is on the brink of extinction in Nigeria. The ascendancy of Sharia ideology in Nigeria rings the death toll for the Nigerian Church," Emmanuel said, calling on the Christian Association of Nigeria to be restructured to be able to better speak out for Christianity in the country. Although Christians make up nearly half of the 186 million population, for nearly a decade they've been heavily targeted by Islamic extremist groups, such as Boko Haram, and most recently by the semi-nomadic herdsmen. "In 2018, we can say in 25 years from now, we are facing the risk of being the last Christians in Nigeria. Therefore, Christians should be in the frontline of defending democracy in Nigeria," Emmanuel warned.”

     Sunday in Australia …  people going out, firing up the barbie, and cooking meat to carbonated perfection, then washing the little bundle of cancerous joy down with a mountain of sauce, and oestrogenic beer. But, over in gun-controlled Chicago, things are a bit different:
  https://www.breitbart.com/big-government/2018/08/05/at-least-40-shot-before-noon-on-sunday-in-gun-controlled-chicago/

“At least 40 people where shot, four fatally, Sunday before noon in gun-controlled Chicago. ABC7 reports that the shooting started at 12:02 a.m., when police said, “Two gunman got out of a white Impala and shot four people at a block party in the 1600-block of South Avers Avenue.” Later in the morning a teenage girl was shot and killed and five others wounded when someone opened fire in the 1300 block of South Millard Avenue.
Attention turned to North Austin around 4 a.m. when one person was shot and killed and three others were wounded. Just before 7 am a 32-year-old man was shot and killed “in the first block of North Leclaire Avenue in the South Austin neighborhood.” He was struck with four bullets and pronounced dead. A 30-year-old male, 34-year-old male, 27-year-old woman, and a 21-year-old woman were wounded by gunfire as well."

     This is a controversial one, as the question of the death penalty for Christians, has been long debated, so we can expect that we may respond to this story in different ways. The Pope has revised the Catechism, to now condemn the death penalty: 
  http://www.catholicnews.com/services/englishnews/2018/pope-revises-catechism-to-say-death-penalty-is-inadmissible.cfm  
  https://www.independent.co.uk/news/world/americas/pope-francis-death-penalty-catechism-capital-punishment-trump-executions-catholic-church-vatican-a8475026.html

“Building on the development of Catholic Church teaching against capital punishment, Pope Francis has ordered a revision of the Catechism of the Catholic Church to assert "the death penalty is inadmissible because it is an attack on the inviolability and dignity of the person" and to commit the church to working toward its abolition worldwide. The catechism's paragraph on capital punishment, 2267, already had been updated by St. John Paul II in 1997 to strengthen its skepticism about the need to use the death penalty in the modern world and, particularly, to affirm the importance of protecting all human life. Announcing the change Aug. 2, Cardinal Luis Ladaria, prefect of the Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith, said, "The new text, following in the footsteps of the teaching of John Paul II in 'Evangelium Vitae,' affirms that ending the life of a criminal as punishment for a crime is inadmissible because it attacks the dignity of the person, a dignity that is not lost even after having committed the most serious crimes."

     We do not get a lot of new New Zealand news items to report about here, but those that do come across our desk (computer screen) are usually bad, sad, or mad. Take this little drop of anarcho-tyrannical oppression:
  https://www.rt.com/news/435074-new-zealand-southern-cancelled/

“Right-wing activist Lauren Southern has fallen victim to yet another last-minute venue cancellation, after the owner of a New Zealand building recieved complaints about Southern and co-speaker Stefan Molyneux’s platform. The self-described “alt-media” pair was swinging by Auckland on the final stop in their antipodean tour, fresh off the back of visiting Australia, where Southern begged God not to “nuke Melbourne” for it's supposed Biblical sins. Dogged by controversy, it appears that strife followed them across the Tasman with their only New Zealand venue canceling at the last minute. Due to a raft of complaints, owner of Auckland’s Powerstation venue Gabrielle Mullins canceled the event, citing a disagreement with the speakers’ message. “As soon as we found out [what their message was], we weren’t comfortable at all because it goes against quite a lot of things that we say,” the owner told the NZ Herald. “They can say whatever they want but personally I don’t want it in my venue.” Southern took to Twitter, lampooning yet another cancelation by quoting the Lord of the Rings, a film New Zealand is famous for. “One does not simply walk into a venue in New Zealand,” she wrote to her 387,000 followers.

     France first, and although mention has been made about this by Bruce a few days ago, here is my take, short and sour:

•    Andrew Malone ventured into the Paris suburb of Saint-Denis for a week
•    The neighbourhood is home to as many as 300,000 illegal immigrants
•    Many rely on crime or the 'black economy' to get by and live in poverty
•    He found rule of French law, equality, religious freedom, was lost in the suburb
•    There are more mosques there than anywhere else and 35 known jihadis.”

     Whooa … here is the latest bit of climate change nonsense. Climate change is sexist and disproportionately affects women and girls:
  http://news.trust.org/item/20180724181453-whorb/

“Climate projections about rising sea levels and soaring temperatures increasingly dominate global headlines, but one climate story that rarely gets told is the tale of how women and girls are hit hardest by extreme weather and shocks. Yet there are myriad ways in which women and girls suffer more than men from the effects of climate change, experts said last week at a debate held by the UK-funded Building Resilience and Adaptation to Climate Extremes and Disasters program. Why? In parts of the world where grave gender inequality is already stark, droughts, floods and other freak weather events mean women and girls are often among the last to receive help. In Chad, researchers Virginie Le Masson and Colette Benoudji have encountered an unexpected manifestation of that dynamic. While studying how living conditions affect the ability of people to resist climate change, they found that female victims of domestic abuse were particularly vulnerable to wild weather. Victims of child marriage and female genital mutilation have less access to a long list of resources during times of climate crises: education, information and land ownership among others. "To sum up: domestic violence impedes resilience building because it prevents those who survived violence to fulfil their basic needs and interests," said Le Masson, a research associate with the Overseas Development Institute think-tank in London.”

     Surely, there is nothing here to get excited about: The New York Times employs an Asian woman editor who has made racist comments about white people. So what? Each day academics all  over the West pump out the same sorts of poison to vulnerable students, as part of the cultural war. And, the pay is good, coming from your tax payers’ dollars. Talk about digging our own graves. Here is all of the coverage of this evet  we need, which proves to us beyond all doubt that President Trump is right in seeing the mainstream false news media as the “enemy of the people.” If this was done to any other ethno-racial group, whoa, the world would shake and  riots would burn entire cities to the ground.

     Statements of anti-white hatred like this have become institutionalised now, and of course, beyond that are the systematic rapes of white children in Europe, especially Britain, that the authorities essentially allow to occur, while hitting with an iron fist, all and every legitimate democratic criticism of mass migration. This is anarcho-tyranny in action, and part of the program of white genocide. Even crying out against our oppression is socially constructed as racism, that magic debate stopping word.
