This is an example of how far down the road to degeneracy we have come; it is cheaper to abort babies than have them born!

“Earlier this week a California judge issued an order blocking President Trump’s new rules protecting Americans from having to pay for drugs and devices that may cause abortions. The ruling concerns the Obama mandate within Obamacare that forces Americans to pay for contraception, including drugs that can cause abortion that violate the consciences of a majority of Americans. In its arguments leading up to the judge’s decision, the state of California made a very disgusting argument as to why President Trump’s pro-life protections must be overturned and why residents of the Golden State and America must be forced to pay for abortion drugs. According to California and it’s attorney general, babies are just too darn expensive — so more babies either need to be killed in abortion or prevented from being born through contraception. California Attorney General Xavier Becerra argued in the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of California that a regulation issued by the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services would prevent an insufficient number of California women from conceiving and giving birth to children.

     So, Trump has backed down and caved in on the government shutdown, which, by the way, showed how useless governments are, and what a taste of tax payer’s money occurs. The media of the elites is saying that the Democrats broke Trump, and of course they are wrong, for the man was broken from the beginning, one of the “hollow men” referred to by T. S. Eliot in his famous poem.

     Clearly Trump lied to the long-suffering Americans who voted for him. There was no intension of building any wall, or stopping the processes that will end America. His whole legacy of “making a deal” and compromise, is completely inconsistent with a wartime battle to the finish. Trump should therefore be seen as the American president who failed the most. Or, perhaps his real agenda was to enable the next anti-American president to arise, and finish the job that Obama started. Well, get on with it. Hopefully Americans still have the revolutionary spirit and will not submit to the total tyranny that is a heartbeat away.

     The more that I learn about China, the more I respect the Chinese for their sense of racial solidarity. If the dream of modernity disappears tomorrow, and techno-society collapses, say from an EMP event, or more likely from its own internal rottenness, most Western people would probably commit suicide without the goodies and sweeties that consumerism bubbles out. Many Chinese would too, but a majority would happily go back to growing rice with a hand hoe. Hopefully, they would preserve some of the wisdom of both the East and West, but probably not. Anyway, that is why the globalists, knowing that they have succeeded in destroying the West, are turning their attention to China, because not a single stone must be left unturned. Of course, Israel continues to be a target as well, but China has now emerged as nationalist enemy number 1:

“The billionaire philanthropist George Soros has used his annual speech at the World Economic Forum, in Davos, to launch a scathing attack on China and its president Xi Jinping. Mr Soros warned that artificial intelligence and machine learning could be used to entrench totalitarian control in the country. He said this scenario presented an "unprecedented danger". But he said the Chinese people were his "main source of hope". "China is not the only authoritarian regime in the world but it is the wealthiest, strongest and technologically most advanced," he said, noting concerns too about Vladimir Putin's Russia. "This makes Xi Jinping the most dangerous opponent of open societies," he said. Mr Soros, a prominent donor to the Democratic Party in the US, also criticised the Trump administration's stance towards China. "Instead of waging a trade war with practically the whole world, the US should focus on China," he said. He urged Washington to crack down on Chinese technology companies such as Huawei and ZTE, which he said present an "unacceptable security risk for the rest of the world". More broadly, Mr Soros cautioned that repressive regimes could utilise technology to control their citizens, in what he called "a mortal threat to open societies".

     There are a large number of sites repeating the usual propaganda, that Australia Day is a celebration of genocide. Taken to its logical conclusion, this must mean that Australia is irreparably based on genocide, right from the beginning. What do the lobbies want done about this? Perhaps, as I have read, all Euro-Australians go back to Europe, and leave all the goodies for the people who were forced to abandon tribal ways and live in modernity.     Now I am not a man of hate, and will take this suggestion seriously. One problem: no one will want us. Europe does not want white people, because it is not a white entity. So, what should the guilt-ridden whites do? Commit suicide? Surely that would be seen as taking the easy way out. Work until death to pay reparations? Perhaps. It is not clear what should be done. … Wait, I know, how about complete surrender of sovereignty to China? You know, dissolve the constitution and literally become part of China, if they would want us. Would the lobby like this instead, if traditional Australia is so “racist”? How about Chinese communism? Yes, oh guilt-ridden liberals, go for that one! China will know how to deal with your trendy existential politically correct angst. Submerge yourselves in the Oneness of Asia.

     Writers here, usually at the end of an agony piece worrying about some enormous problem that is being neglected, wave their hands and mention collapse, be it the West, the World, or even the universe. Yet, a case has been made that collapse is already occurring, and is a process of decay, rather than a catastrophic event, like the collapse of a bridge. “Decay,” is probably a better word to describe the nature of the fall of the West;
  https://www.peakprosperity.com/blog/114741/collapse-already-here

“Collapse is already here. However, unlike Hollywood's vision, the early stages of collapse cause people to cling even tighter to the status quo. Instead of panic in the streets, we simply see more of the same -- as those in power do all they can to remain so, while the majority of the public attempts to ignore the growing problems for as long as it possibly can. For both the elite and the majority, their entire world view and their personal sense of self depends on things not crumbling all around them, so they remain willfully blind to any evidence to the contrary. When faced with the predicaments we warn about here at PeakProsperity.com, getting an early start on prudently shifting your own personal situation is of vital strategic and tactical importance. Tens of thousands of our readers already have taken wise steps in their lives to position themselves resiliently. But most of the majority won't get started until it’s entirely too late to make any difference at all. Which is sad but perhaps unavoidable, given human nature. If everybody around you is saying “Everything is awesome!” it can take a long time to determine for yourself that things in fact aren't:

     While the West obediently follows the script of racial suicide, Russia has been busy creating weapons of hyper-mass destruction just in case the West does not suicide quickly enough. The latest uses the power of the sea to destroy coastal cities. The question though, is if this is used on America, or even us, will migrants still be coming to bring diversity to a new underwater world, like in the failed movie, Waterworld ?

“A former advisor to President Trump has admitted that there are genuine concerns over Russia’s shock plan to use a “doomsday device” that would create a 300-ft radiation tsunami wave - powerful enough to wipe out major US cities. Former State Department senior adviser Christian Whiton said that hearing the plans would make any security official “have concerns”. He admitted that such a blast would create a “wave - and a highly irradiated one”.

     The traditional ideal of masculinity is under attack like never before, because, well, that is just the stage that gender agenda has reached, from false equality, to masculine genocide now. So, every defence of traditional masculinity must be celebrated, and one such defence made these salient points:
  https://www.zerohedge.com/news/2019-01-25/smith-feminism-disease-and-masculinity-cure

“Evidence suggests that we should reverse this claim entirely and say that masculinity is entirely natural, and feminism is unhealthy. Feminism is a disease, and masculinity is the cure. As mentioned above, unlike feminism, masculinity is NOT a social construct or an ideology, it is an inherent biological reality. What feminists often present as “unhealthy” behaviors in masculinity are simply fabricated or exaggerated, and I am speaking from a Western perspective specifically. While men are designed to be more sexually aggressive, there is no “rape culture” in western society. Nowhere in the western world is rape advocated as acceptable. Nowhere is it protected by law. The #MeToo movement is yet another propaganda initiative which is meant to take criminal actions of a select few men and apply them to ALL men and masculinity in general. The lie of rape culture is promoted through false and rigged statistics. The fact that a large portion of reported sexual abuse is perpetrated by women is also ignored.  Clearly, rape is not the exclusive domain of masculinity.

     Suing people and organisations generally has a bad rap, I think undeserved in many ways, because often, suing is the only answer. For example, the vilification of the Covington student Nicholas Sandmann, was unrelenting, and he was savagely attacked even before full video evidence was looked at.
  https://www.breitbart.com/politics/2019/01/25/covington-bishop-apologizes-for-being-bullied-into-premature-statement/

     Thus, the bishop raced to condemn the students, allegedly based on pressure, rising on his high moral horse to say, “this behavior is opposed to the Church’s teachings on the dignity and respect of the human person. The matter is being investigated and we will take appropriate action, up to and including expulsion.” Yes, all that for simply smiling at a person who was loudly banging a drum in one’s face. But, then there was an apology: “The apology came after Sandmann’s family hired lawyer L. Lin Wood, who according to the Washington Post, “often [seeks] eye-popping damages for those he believes have been libeled or slandered in the press.” Maybe the good bishop will have something to worry about in the future, after he has been put through the wringer of court.

     For decades now we have watched green energy dreamers destroy Australia’s backbone industries. Their incessant attacks on hydro-carbon energy have vandalised our electricity grid, damaged heavy industry, bloated power costs and made blackouts inevitable. The last coal-fired power station built in Eastern Australia, the small Kogan Creek generator in Queensland, is now 12 years old. We should be building new coal-fired power stations on established coalfields near existing transmission lines. However Green worshippers prefer to scar the hills with wind towers, plaster the flatlands with solar panels, and waste money on spider-webs of new roads, transmission towers and power lines. Then when it becomes obvious that this ramshackle system will not produce reliable energy, they waste even more money on humungous lithium batteries, energy-wasting hydro pumped-storage, thumping diesel engines and “load shedding” (pc language for “power rationing”). Parroting tired and discredited climate alarm theories, they oppose any expansion of coal exploration, mining or power generation. They also impede gas exploration, timber-getting and fishing, and continually attack the grazing industries. No industry has escaped their lethal green shackles.  Who will rid us of these yokes?

To The Australian        Gerard Henderson rightly notes that "the division between indigenous and other Australians is not quite what it seems" ("This nation of immigrants rightly cherishes its rich past", 26-27/1). There are important implications in this, which he does not draw out, but which need to be, so that ordinary Australians (the great majority of us) are not taken for a ride by confidence tricksters. The fact that most Australians "who identify as indigenous" have some non-indigenous blood, and that only "a very small number of Australians have only indigenous DNA", means that almost all those who currently present themselves as "indigenous leaders" of our so-called "First Peoples" are really laying claim to a representative status that they do not and cannot possess. In a nutshell, this means that their agitation for "constitutional recognition" and a changed date for Australia Day is morally built on sand.

To The Age        Teela Reid, who has Wiradjuri and Wailwan ancestry, refers to "a First Nations Voice" ("Heart in search of a voice", 26/1), but can such a thing really exist or be brought into being at this stage of our history? It is not clear that the tribes which lived here before the 18th Century can be accurately described as "First Nations" and, in any case, they no longer exist - so how can they have a voice today? The great majority of Australians who identify as indigenous have some non-indigenous blood. Only a very small number of Australians have nothing but indigenous DNA. Thus very few of those who put themselves forward as indigenous spokespeople or leaders truly have the unadulterated representative status that they claim. Therefore, their agitation for "constitutional recognition", including the Uluru Statement from the Heart, and for a changed date for Australia Day, is morally built on sand.

     The latest internet censorship news is that the elites are moving on from shutting down discussion of race/immigration, to shutting down corporate critique, through use of software that does all of the censoring, passively:

“Microsoft has just unveiled its plans to partner up with NewsGuard, a “startup” company bent on censoring the world wide web, disguised as an app that helps users weed out “fake news.” Now, instead of being an app that users can choose to download, Microsoft will be incorporating the technology as an integrated feature of their mobile web browser, Edge. If you use your cellphone to surf the web, Edge might not be the best choice — unless you enjoy being spoon-fed leftist propaganda by a neocon corporation that is tied to Monsanto. As if the blatant censorship of conservatives across social media wasn’t bad enough, Microsoft and NewsGuard are now conspiring to suppress all kinds of information, ranging from conservative news organizations to scientific literature exposing the dangers of GMOs. As sources report, the censorship software NewsGuard will soon be a key element of Microsoft’s mobile web browser, Edge. Instead of having to download an app, users will simply have to click a button to enable the rating system. The system is described as a “green-red rating signal if a website is trying to get it right or instead has a hidden agenda or knowingly publishes falsehoods or propaganda.”

This is literally what the mad environmental scientists are now proposing — the very same people who have, for years, claimed that “chemtrails” are a conspiracy theory and don’t exist. Now, all of a sudden, they want to chemtrail the entire planet in order to “save” us all from global warming. …

     Racism is all about generally white, and primarily Northern European people doing things that globalists don’t like. But the anti-discrimination discrimination ideology does not stop there, but goes down all the way to animals, maybe plants, and perhaps even what we take to be inanimate objects, which, according to the philosophy of panpsychism, have a mental aspect to them. So maybe even subatomic particles have moral rights?
  https://plato.stanford.edu/entries/panpsychism/

“Panpsychism is the view that mentality is fundamental and ubiquitous in the natural world. The view has a long and venerable history in philosophical traditions of both East and West, and has recently enjoyed a revival in analytic philosophy. For its proponents panpsychism offers an attractive middle way between physicalism on the one hand and dualism on the other. The worry with dualism—the view that mind and matter are fundamentally different kinds of thing—is that it leaves us with a radically disunified picture of nature, and the deep difficulty of understanding how mind and brain interact. And whilst physicalism offers a simple and unified vision of the world, this is arguably at the cost of being unable to give a satisfactory account of the emergence of human and animal consciousness. Panpsychism, strange as it may sound on first hearing, promises a satisfying account of the human mind within a unified conception of nature. …

“More than 7-in-10 households headed by immigrants in the state of California are on taxpayer-funded welfare, a new study reveals. The latest Census Bureau data analyzed by the Center for Immigration Studies (CIS) finds that about 72 percent of households headed by noncitizens and immigrants use one or more forms of taxpayer-funded welfare programs in California — the number one immigrant-receiving state in the U.S. Meanwhile, only about 35 percent of households headed by native-born Americans use welfare in California.”

     The Saltbush Club today called on the Morrison Government to come clean on what additional burdens for Australians are being discussed at COP24, the UN climate jamboree now taking place in Poland. The Secretary of The Saltbush Club, Mr Viv Forbes of Australia, said that Australia will suffer badly from the destructive energy policies being promoted by the UN’s war on cheap, reliable hydro-carbon fuels. “Like the Trump supporters in USA, Brexit in Britain, Solidarity in Poland, the Yellow Vests in France and the new Brazilian government we do not support the UN energy plans and we fear their hidden agenda. “Australia’s backbone industries were built on cheap reliable power. We have huge overheads in the bureaucracy, academia and the welfare state which must be supported by real industry - mining and smelting, farming, fishing, forestry, processing, transport and manufacturing. These industries rely on hydro-carbon energy – coal, gas, oil, diesel and petrol. “Because Australia has no nuclear or geothermal power, limited hydro potential, an aging fleet of coal generators and several bans on gas exploration, we are very vulnerable to the UN’s war on hydro-carbons.

“PM Morrison must answer three specific questions:

To The Australian        Paul Monk has offered a sturdy defence both of free speech (as a principle) and the ways in which our political order should be shaped in order to facilitate it ("The rules for civil engagement", 8-9/12). Yes, we should indeed "agree to open contentious subjects up to discussion, not shut them down." Monk does us a service by recommending Nadine Strossen's new book Hate: Why We Should Resist It With Free Speech, Not Censorship. The litmus test for this intellectual idealism is "Holocaust revisionism." At present this subject is usually shirked by otherwise honourable defenders of liberty; but, until the situation changes, decent persons in several nations will continue to be persecuted for expressing their dissident views; and the great service of men such as the late Professor Robert Faurisson will be largely ignored rather than thoughtfully analysed.

“Aboriginal people who do not live in the City of Melbourne could be given voting and candidate rights as “traditional owners”. An issues paper by the council said eligibility for enrolment and candidacy was currently restricted to residents, business owners and property owners. The paper said that, while many “traditional custodians” may not be residents or ratepayers within the council area, “the decisions and actions of the City of Melbourne Council have a particular impact on traditional custodians and their lands and waters”. “Aboriginals who are traditional custodians are recognised as having a link to land that is far stronger and deeper than many recognised land rights in the current electoral system,” it said. Councillor Nicolas Frances Gilley wants the council to approach the Andrews Government to amend the City of Melbourne Act to set up a special electoral franchise for traditional owners.”
