Here is yet another example of moral decline, in fact the displacement of traditional Christianity and free speech, in favour of woke, and backed by the police. We find a Christian protesting across the street from a Pride rally. The Christian was told by a cop, “let them have their event” and “respect it,” even though he was in no way stopping their event, and certainly was doing less than that side usually does to Christians in their protests. However, the Christian exercised his God-given right to protest, and was midway in quoting a Bible verse, when he was arrested. It is a case just like the 2020 police responses to antifa, and the January 6 bias against Trump supporters. The Christian’s first amendment rights were violated. If this is not moral decline as well, I will walk to China. But, I am not sure the sanity of that old phrase now.

I read James Reed’s reply to the two researchers who recently published in the journal Nature, the claim tht morality is not declining. That made me laugh. The article I was  reading at the time was about how New York City and Los Angeles plan to solve their out-of-control drug problems, by handing out free drug paraphernalia to addicts. It has even been proposed by some liberals that the actual drugs should be legalised, but placed under government control for distribution. To me, this has moral implications, and is in fact not just a piece of public policy, but is something grounded in morality, in fact, a wrong and degenerate one. There are thousands of examples of this, so I too view with scepticism the claim that mortify is not declining. It has pretty much hit rock bottom in most of the West, the real decline beginning in the 1960s, when the globalist elites really got their genocidal plan ticking over.

“The Illusion of Moral Decline,” by Adam Mastroianni and Daniel Gilbert appeared in the journal Nature on June 7, 2023, and challenges the idea of the wide spread belief that there is moral decline. That is one theme that runs through most of the articles at the Alor.org blog, so naturally, I was interested. The paper first states that numerous surveys show that across the world people believe that moral decline has occurred. And, there is plenty of evidence of this in fact, at least depending if one is a conservative or not. Almost all of the so-called progressive movements since the 1960s, ranging from feminism and the destruction of the nuclear family, right through to the attack upon traditional manhood and the transgender agenda have been viewed as moral decline by conservatives, especially Christians.

However, Mastroianni and Gilbert have countered this with an analysis of data allegedly showing that individuals’ evaluation of fellow contemporaries’ morality has remained unchanged. They conclude that it is thus a myth to suppose that morality is declining, as the two claims are inconsistent.

In reply, their survey data does not prove their thesis. It is quite possible that there could be an unchanged view of their contemporaries’ morality, while still claiming there was a general decline in morality over a longer period of time. And, as well, this view, while confirmed by the data they produced, does not account for the fact that millions of people, such as Trump supporters in the US, do see America as in decline on all fronts, including morally. Thus, I find the research odd to say the least. There are millions who simply do not have an unchanged view of their fellow’s’ mortality, but see it as degenerate. I can name plenty myself. Here is but one example:

When I first saw this story about how mainstream social media was permitting accounts devoted to exploiting underaged people, mainly young girls for sex, I thought it must be false news, being too incredible. Wouldn’t the police have been following this, one of the crimes of the century, and cut it down? However, the present disclosure come from private research conducted by The Wall Street Journal and researchers at Stanford University and the University of Massachusetts Amherst. One can only guess at the sheer amount of abuse and evil out there in the wilds of the internet, let alone the Dark Web. The problem will be to restrict this evil material, without by a flow-on effect, enabling censorship of legitimate dissent political views, and the system, once it moves, will be more interested in silencing political dissent, than silencing paedophiles, as the Epstein case demonstrated; plenty of the elites are paedophiles themselves.

Here is another opinion on whether Russia will launch a pre-emptive nuclear strike on America. This should be of some interest, since it is generally thought that once one nuclear fire cracker goes off, the rest will go, in a great big bang. US commentator Ben Armstrong has said that Russia has already indicated that it is prepared to launch a pre-emptive strike if Russia faces an existential thereat from America and NATO. Former Russian President Dmitry Medvedev. “There are some irreversible rules of war. If it comes to [deliveries of] nuclear weapons [to Ukraine], a pre-emptive strike will have to be carried out,” Medvedev said this, regarding the possibility of the West providing the Ukraine with nuclear weapons. The destruction of the Nord Stream pipeline, and now the controversy over he destruction of he Nova Kakhovka dam, are hot pieces of steel rod, prodding the Russian bear. It could lash out at any time. Yet, the West seems less concentred about a nuclear exchange, now it seems likely, than during the Cold War. It is not much discussed in Australia, apart from me.

Woke Leftist ideologies, along with a corruption of the political and legal systems seems to now be the characterising feature of the West, with the general public beginning to get a rightful distrust of the system. We see this very clearly in America, where everything is bigger and worse, than in Australia, but as we say, we look at happenings in America to see where we will be in a few years, or even months. As noted by Natural News.com, systems failures in the US are becoming frequent, such as the burning of food depots, and train crashes spilling toxic chemicals. We have not heard how a train carrying 30 tons of ammonia nitrate, which can be used as fertiliser, and an explosive, simply disappeared into thin air. There are no recent news reports on this. And it goes on. Corruption and conspiracy are at work in many of these events, but woke and diversity quotas are set to ensure that appointments are not going to be on merits and being the best skilled, but having the right colour, non-white, and pronouns. It alone is a recipe for collapse.

The charges against former President Trump, for keeping alleged classified documents at his home, have been made public, and are detailed below. These charges were basically predicted by constitutional law professor Alan Dershowitz, author of Get Trump (2023). He argues that Trump as president can declassify any document, so the documents were not confidential. As well, various charges are simply unhinged. For example, the charge that Trump lied about having the documents, does not hold as  the authorities knew that he had the documents as they requested extra security on the room, which Trump did.

Everyone knows that this is a corruption of the rule of law, perhaps the greatest in American history. Hopefully it will stir up the conservative masses like never before, especially if Trump runs for president from a prison cell. Civil war 2.0? Maybe. But maybe now Trump will realise the full extent of evil of the system, having been given the ultimate blood nose, and knock down of his massive ego.

I tend to have a highly cynical view of the chattering class, and technocrats, seeing them as on the side of those who pay them, the state perhaps, or Big Business, ultimately controlled by the same Dark Lords at the end of the day. However, I should recognise that some of the chatterers may have had pricks of conscience at what they saw during the Covid mandates, the abandonment of fundamental medical ethical principles, and democratic values, and open brainwashing by the state for the benefit of the profits of Big Pharma. Some have now lamented that they would have liked to have spoken out, but would have faced firing from their high-paying comfortable jobs. The same story is filtered out in taking the vax; it was needed to go interstate, it would have led to sackings, and so on. Should these excuses be just accepted? I think not, since many Covid mandate and vax critics did face sackings for speaking up, and for leading figures such as Dr Malone, there was cancellation, if not persecution to force him to be silent. He details his feelings on this at the link to his substack below. If large numbers had spoken up, there would have been safety in numbers, and perhaps much of the Covid misery we are still facing, as seen by the excess mortality, could have been avoided.

Peter Hitchens has a way with words, obviously enough. He has written that the Covid lockdowns were a mistake, like burning down one’s house, to destroy a wasp nest. He makes reference to a report jointly produced by experts at Johns Hopkins University in the U.S. and Lund University in Sweden, which shows that the costs of the lockdowns, measured over a range of variables,  were massively greater than any benefits. While champions of the lockdowns say that millions of lives were saved, the report shows that only 1,700 lives in England and Wales in spring 2020, were saved. It was sham, but the real interesting question now is did the authorities get wind of this, but chose to double-down, or was it a grand conspiracy from the beginning? Having written about this for almost three years now, I plug for the conspiracy line. The strategy is to move away from liberal democratic ideologies, to be in line with the rise of communist China in its quest for world domination.

This is where the immigration invasion leads, and is a message to the rest of the world, who have not yet reached our present stage of social decay. New York mayor Eric Adams is offering to pay New Yorkers to take in migrants into their private homes, as there is now a massive accommodation crisis due to the influx of potential Democrat voters, and military age Chinese men. Already, the churches, who have fallen for the woke agenda, have gone the migration way, with 50 churches taking in the illegals. Of course, it has been objected that the illegals are getting a free ride, when many locals cannot afford a place of their own, but the authorities do not care; it is, after all, the Great Replacement, which now is beyond even white replacement, and is, a total cancellation of locals over imports. At the end of the day, that is what the immigration ideology has always been about, a war on the local. There is a lesson here, once more, for all the West.

The Hart Group has put out a publication arguing for the common-sense position that the Covid pandemic was not a real pandemic, but a trumped-up thing. The media, government, and especially the health authorities, pushed the line, and in Australia still hold to it that Covid was: (1) novel; (2) extremely lethal, and (3) unprecedented. But, Covid was none of these things, and all these assumptions have been decisively refuted, and some such as lethality were seen to be false very early in the plandemic. “It was no more novel than numerous other viruses which emerge each year in terms of the ability to be recognised by our immune systems. It was no more lethal than bad influenza viruses of the past and was less lethal than seasonal influenza for the young. Intensive care stays were longer than have been observed with flu, though whether that was due to a virus directly or caused by our changed response to how we treated respiratory infections is unclear. Overall it was a treatable, seasonal respiratory virus mostly affecting the old and infirm.”

If all three of these assumptions were correct, Sweden which did not hold to the manic lockdown policies of say Victoria, Australia, would have been destroyed by Covid, but in fact, Sweden did better than most of Europe. Covid cases were inflated by a misuse of the PCR test, and hospitals classifying anyone who died with Covid, as dying from Covid, such as if a Covid infected person got shot in the head. All this was needed to create a climate of fear, leading to lockdowns, and the promise of freedom from taking the magic genetic goo of Big Pharma, our masters.

The excluded media, and various politicians, have complained about Victorian Premier Daniel Andrews on why he blocked the Australian Media from a Chinese forum. Well, this leader, who locked up the state for near world record times, was returned by a majority by Victorian voters, so we better like our new life under a CCP-like philosophy.

Swedish Prime Minister Ulf Kristersson has recognised that mass immigration does not work, and is now moving to control the border policy. Migrants will need to learn the native language, and not commit crimes, like gang warfare, grenade attacks, and mass rapes of blonde Swedish girls. Will woke Sweden move to save itself from annihilation? Neighbouring Nordic countries have been concerned about the emerging anarchy and chaos in Sweden and are considering closing borders in the worse case situation. Sweden wants to be a moral superpower, and instead is killing itself to be woke. A unique Nordic gene pool is set to be wiped out. Well, why bother conserving any biological diversity on the planet then; let it all fall?

This is what an advanced stage of Leftist psychosis looks like. Oxford University's Regent's Park College, recently released a policy statement on the crime of “misgendering,” a "Trans Inclusion Statement." The new policy explains that it is considered bullying or harassment to "misgender" transgender or non-binary-identifying individuals by referring to them by their birth name or biological pronouns. "Transphobic harassment or bullying" is against the school's policy and the U.K.'s Equality Act of 2010, an anti-discrimination law that protects individuals from unlawful treatment based on age, sex, sexual orientation, gender reassignment, and religious beliefs.

"Any unlawful discriminatory behaviour, including transphobic harassment or bullying of by individuals or groups, will be regarded extremely seriously and could be grounds for disciplinary action, which may include expulsion or dismissal," the statement continues. "Such behaviour will be dealt with under the College's Policy on Harassment and Bullying and within the relevant legislation The Equality Act 2010."

Trump, who has proclaimed that MAGA types are blind obedient to the rule of law, as defined by the present regime, is now set to find out how that works. Following on from their raid upon his Florida home, where classified documents were stored, with the knowledge of the authorities, he is now being indicted over the boxes hoax. That is being done even though he declassified all documents, and both Pence and Biden, who themselves had classified documents, are not being indicted. Clearly, proverbial blind Freddy can see that this is electoral interference, given Trump being ahead in the polls. It is conclusive proof of the utter corruptness of the Biden regime.

If Trump survives, and becomes president, will he wake up? Will he bring back Jared and daughter to neutralise everything he thinks of doing? Or, will, in the 11^th hour, he develop some manhood and more than two neurons to rub together, and see this as the final battle?

The Ukraine War, is beyond the kinetics, a war of propaganda and misinformation. Thus, we need to take what either side says, not with just a grain of salt, but a salt mine. However, al viewpoints of the major players need to be considered. Thus, the head of Russia’s mercenary group, Wagner, Yevgeny Prigozhin, said that he thought that Putin could deploy nuclear weapons on the Belgorod region on the border with Ukraine, which is Russian territory. This would be a kind of “mad dog” strategy to show that Russia is not messing around, bombing itself, and Ukrainians to boot. However, Prigozhin also said that the tactical nuke may not work, given how the Russians neglect their equipment. But, I would not be too sure of that, and would not bet the sheep farm on it.

Conservatives often make the mistake of assuming that modern Leftism is just a political movement, that can be defeated in the usual way, say by alternative political parties and policies. Yet, despite the horrors of communism in the USSR, and Maoist China, Leftism has become the dominant ideology in the West, in the schools, universities, political parties and administration. Such resilience cannot be explained merely in political terms. Indeed, Leftism has all the main attributes of a religion, except for a transcendental god, although in many respects, the Leftist want to establish themselves as gods, via the transhumanist use of AI and genetic engineering to change the very nature of the human species. It is no wonder then, that the genetic therapies, called mRNA vaxxes, were engulfed by the left, and anti-vaxxers, even if they were Black, were hit with the magic weapon of the Left, the universal solvent, “racists,” “white supremacists.”

As in the UK, as reported at the blog by our London correspondent, Richard Miller, the Green ideology has made energy much more expensive in Australia, and it seems that it will take years for electricity prices to go down, meaning, they will never go down to pre-pandemic levels, even in energy-rich Australia. Labor, pursuing the same climate change illusion as the Greens, wants to triple the amount of renewable energy flowing into the grid by 2030, but energy leaders have said that Australia will not be able to build enough renewable energy to replace coal. Alinta chief executive Jeff Dimery has said: “Snowy 2.0 is delayed, VNI West is coming in 2031, three years after Yallourn comes out. The whole transition is not lining up. We are so far off track.”

Off track indeed. Moving away from coal, rather than developing technologies to make coal use cleaner, has been a fatal mistake, that will lead to Australia facing the severe energy crisis of Europe, while communist china is free to build two coal power stations a week.

For some time corporations have been pursuing a Left wing social justice agenda. This occurred to a limited extent in the late 1960s and 1970s, with probably the entertainment industry leading the way. In recent times the number of companies supporting ever-more radical Left causes has grown, with Black Lives Matter scooping heaps of cream, and more recently the transgender agenda being taken up by companies such as Bud Light beer, Target, and the North Face. Consumers have voted with their credit cards, and various companies got a rude awakening, when sales fell, and profits plunged.

It seems that consumers will no longer put up with being told what to believe, and having ideologies rammed down their throats, so to speak. This shows the vulnerability of companies, who at the end of the day, if they ignore the central tenet of a business, to make a profit, will make a loss, and eventually go bust. It is the gentle joy of natural selection.

Technocracy critic, Patrick Wood cuts to the chase in his assessment of the open US border, which is seemingly allowing military age Chinese to enter the country; talk about a nation digging its own grave, for how many of these are PLA and CCP? Surely the majority, and their refugee status, as displaced people with no home, is highly questionable. Yet, as Wood notes, what is happening with the influx of illegals, in the case of New York, is to create a time bomb. The Democrat immigration mad authorities have forced hotels to take in the illegals, so that now 50 percent of hotels are full of illegals, all expenses paid by the tax payer, of course. There have been many stories of hotel rooms being trashed, but Wood thinks this is just the beginning of a much bigger crisis, that will dwarf 9/11. Certainly, if PLA agents have entered by the hundreds, if not thousands (we do not get the figures), the chances of terrorism to make 9/11 look small, have radically increased. It is national suicide; war begins from within.
