At first blush I thought that the balloon had gone up, and it was the end of mankind. Well, heaven would be nice. But, then, I saw the fine print, namely that the EU insane thought police were banning the word “mankind.’ Presumably, the transhuman agenda of eliminating the human race, as Mike Adams thinks is going to happen, will be next cab off the rank:
  https://www.naturalnews.com/2019-01-03-eu-moves-to-outlaw-the-word-mankind-because-it-starts-with-man.html

“Liberal dogma now dictates that words beginning with the letters “m-a-n” are now “gender-biased” tools of the patriarchy which must be criminalized — at least in the European Union. The EU has decided to ban the use of “gender-biased” words and will be moving towards more gender neutral language. The outlawing of gender-specific language and more is all part of the new paradigm laid out in their new guide, Gender Neutral Language In The European Parliament. The policing of language is soon going to reach its apex — and it’s not going to be pretty. Language has a powerful effect on the way we think and feel. The erasure of male identity in language signifies a much greater problem than just battling so-called gender bias. Recall Ayn Rand’s Anthem, a dystopian fiction novel in which the notion of individuality has been erased entirely; gender-specific pronouns are not used. There is no “I,” only “we.” Perhaps it sounds a bit far-fetched, but every path begins with a single step — including the path to tyranny. Outlawing male identity and gender-specific language in government is only the beginning. And while the English language is being obliterated, identity and individuality may just be going down with it.”

     Ah! Now I have your attention, time for a little talk about the birds and the bees, or how extreme right-wingers (note the bird metaphor, i.e. “wings”), have better sex lives than feral drug-soaked Leftoids:
  https://www.iflscience.com/editors-blog/very-right-wing-europeans-are-the-most-satisfied-with-their-sex-lives/

“As reported by Buzzfeed, a YouGov survey asking five European countries about their sex lives found that those on the far-right of the political spectrum were the most satisfied with their bedroom antics. Generally speaking, those on the left and far-left were among the least satisfied. The survey of more than 19,000 people across the UK, France, Sweden, Germany, and Denmark was conducted for Sex, Lies and the Ballot Box, a new book due out this week. With no exceptions, those describing themselves as “very right wing” were far happier with their frisky frivolities than anyone else on the spectrum. Those considering themselves to be “centrist” were somewhat happier with their sex lives than those on the “right,” but anyone further left tended to be the least happy.

China - Level 2: Exercise Increased Caution

     Exercise increased caution in China due to arbitrary enforcement of local laws as well as special restrictions on dual U.S.-Chinese nationals. Chinese authorities have asserted broad authority to prohibit U.S. citizens from leaving China by using ‘exit bans,’ sometimes keeping U.S. citizens in China for years. China uses exit bans coercively:

     What are now defined as fringe works, described the ancient Aryans, a Nordic sub-race of the white race, as they called themselves, and were described, moving in great waves, conquering country after country, but ultimately fading away, as their people mixed genes with the locals. Look, let’s ask the Indians about this, as reported in an article, “How Genetics is Settling the Aryan Migration Debate”:
  https://www.thehindu.com/sci-tech/science/how-genetics-is-settling-the-aryan-migration-debate/article19090301.ece?fbclid=IwAR0ja0UrKIK12mpfP4tKllOhDhIZBO4P4JVMQd4BTJ6e0pBqRCtM90T0pKY

“New DNA evidence is solving the most fought-over question in Indian history. And you will be surprised at how sure-footed the answer is, writes Tony Joseph. The thorniest, most fought-over question in Indian history is slowly but surely getting answered: did Indo-European language speakers, who called themselves Aryans, stream into India sometime around 2,000 BC – 1,500 BC when the Indus Valley civilisation came to an end, bringing with them Sanskrit and a distinctive set of cultural practices? Genetic research based on an avalanche of new DNA evidence is making scientists around the world converge on an unambiguous answer: yes, they did. This may come as a surprise to many — and a shock to some — because the dominant narrative in recent years has been that genetics research had thoroughly disproved the Aryan migration theory. This interpretation was always a bit of a stretch as anyone who read the nuanced scientific papers in the original knew. But now it has broken apart altogether under a flood of new data on Y-chromosomes (or chromosomes that are transmitted through the male parental line, from father to son).

     Here is an example of society in free fall; the UK army has recruitment ads targeting “me, me, me, millennials, class clowns, binge gamers, phone zombies, snow flakes and selfie addicts.” Did they miss anyone?
  https://www.rt.com/uk/447993-uk-army-recruit-young-snowflakes/
  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YFGHEZMSek4&feature=youtu.be

“The British Army has come under fire for its latest recruitment drive targeting young people with posters calling on “snowflakes, selfie addicts, class clowns, phone zombies, and me, me, millennials” to join the military. The campaign is a bid to attract young people to join the UK forces by claiming the army is looking for special skills in order to convince young people that their snowflake attitudes, obsession with their phones, and passion for video games make them right for a career in combat. The campaign’s television ads show young people being undervalued in their jobs, and claims the army is looking for such people as it recognises their potential. The drab work scenes are cut with exciting scenes of soldiers delivering humanitarian aid and other military moments. The recruitment drive is targeting 16 to 25-year-olds, also known as Generation Z (those born between 1995-2015), to join the army’s ranks. In the UK, 16-year-olds are allowed to join the army. Between 2015-2016, more than a fifth of new recruits were under 18.”

     As usual the future rushes up to us, with the decadent universities being the first to show the decline. Now white males are a minority being put in the diversity net, and soon this will be the case for the entire society, as it falls apart:
  https://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/2018/12/09/universities-launch-drive-recruit-white-males-low-numbers-give/

“Universities are setting targets to recruit more white male students after low numbers meant they are now classed a “minority group”. Essex and Aston Universities have become Britain’s first non-elite institutions to write the target into their official recruitment plans, putting white males on a par with Black students and women engineers. White British students are in a minority at roughly one in ten institutions, according to the Higher Education Statistics Agency. Meanwhile on certain courses such as pharmacy, business and some science degrees, more than seven in 10 students is from an ethnic minority. In 2016-17, 27 per cent of the UK undergraduate intake were white males, down from 30 per cent in 2007-08. Oxford University has previously announced a drive to attract more of the group. Nick Hillman, director of the Higher Education Policy Institute (HEPI), which has released a report on the plight of young men in education, told the Mail on Sunday: 'When putting together our report, we were shocked to find so few higher education institutions had these sorts of targets. “The problem is so evident and we've continued to go backwards.” "Some people oppose this whole agenda - we were told we were wrong to look at gender and should care only about class.” The Institute’s report calls for more foundation year courses preparing students for studying a degree as a means of encouraging more young men to apply.”

     This article caught my eye; the typical gender agenda attack upon some sacred institution, this time breast-feeding. Saying that breast-feeding is natural, which it is, reinforces gender roles. That to me is a good thing, but for the progressives, it is “unethical,” according to their weird paradigm:
  http://www.iwf.org/news/2803518/Study:-Describing-Breastfeeding-as-%E2%80%98Natural%E2%80%99-Is-Unethical-Because-It-Reinforces-Gender-Roles?fbclid=IwAR0zdWCZM-iKVAlpDoyBhaHoUZ5jRuJDehV1C411Ed17Bl-hLtXCv7C8C2c

“It’s “ethically inappropriate” for government and medical organizations to describe breastfeeding as “natural” because the term enforces rigid notions about gender roles, claims a new study in Pediatrics. “Coupling nature with motherhood… can inadvertently support biologically deterministic arguments about the roles of men and women in the family (for example, that women should be the primary caretaker,” the study says. The study notes that in recent years, the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, the American Academy of Pediatrics, the World Health Organization, and several state departments of health have all promoted breastfeeding over bottle-feeding, using the term “natural.” “Referencing the ‘natural’ in breastfeeding promotion… may inadvertently endorse a set of values about family life and gender roles, which would be ethically inappropriate,” the study says. Unless such public-service announcements “make transparent the ‘values and beliefs that underlie them,’” they should quit describing breastfeeding as “natural.”

     President Bolsonaro, called the Trump of Brazil, has kept his election promises, unlike Donald Trump. He is moving to remove the restrictive gun laws that were put in place in 2012. Brazil has a high crime rate, and the ordinary people are tired of being raped, robbed and murdered; Brazil has the highest number of murders in the world:

     This item is important because it shows the bias and perpetuation of “false news” by the mainstream media, in this case the New York Times, against President Trump:
  https://www.breitbart.com/the-media/2019/01/02/nolte-fired-editor-jill-abramson-rips-the-nyts-trump-derangement-syndrome/

“Jill Abramson, the former executive editor of the far-left New York Times, the same triggered loon who carries an Obama doll in her purse to “comfort” her wounded soul in Trump’s America, is accusing the Times of being a gang of money-hungry hacks who have sold their souls to the anti-Trump Resistance. Howard Kurtz at Fox News reports that in her upcoming book,  Merchants of Truth, Abramson blasts away at her successor, Dean Baquet. “Though Baquet said publicly he didn’t want the Times to be the opposition party, his news pages were unmistakably anti-Trump,” Abramson writes. “Some headlines contained raw opinion, as did some of the stories that were labelled as news analysis.”

     I have been reporting for some months on the frightening military advances made by Russia, but China is competing in the scary stakes, now having almost science fiction weapons, mounted and ready to roll:
  http://www.shtfplan.com/headline-news/war-ready-chinese-warship-set-sail-armed-with-electromagnetic-railgun_01022019

“The Type 072II Yuting-class tank landing ship Haiyangshan has set sail for possible testing in the open ocean.  The navy warship is equipped with what appears to be an electromagnetic railgun. According to Science Alert, the weapon mounted on the warship was seen along the Yangtze River at the Wuchang Shipyard in Wuhan earlier this year. According to a separate report by Task & Purpose, the latest photos of the test bed ship, which appeared on social media a few days ago, show the ship mounted with the suspected railgun on the vessel as it roams the high seas. China’s futuristic electromagnetic railgun may already be the most powerful cannon to ever roam the high seas and is ahead of schedule. New photos appear to show the railgun perched on the bow of its test ship at sea. Chinese media outlets, such as the state-affiliated Global Times, revealed in March that nearly two months after the first pictures of what was dubbed the “Yangtze River Monster” showed up online, the Chinese People’s Liberation Army Navy is “making notable achievements on advanced weapons, including sea tests of electromagnetic railguns.”

     Having arthritis in my lower back, like so many oldish folk, each morning I have been lathering up my back with copious amounts of the common pain killer, diclofenac, which I have just found out, could kill me:
  https://www.thesun.co.uk/news/7177122/common-painkiller-diclofenac-heart-attack-stroke/

“A COMMON painkiller prescribed to millions of people could increase the risk of heart attack or stroke by 50 per cent, experts have warned. Diclofenac - marketed under the brand name Voltarol or Voltaren in the US - can cause heart failure and irregular heartbeats, new findings show. The drug was recently withdrawn from being sold over the counter in the UK - over fears about serious side effects. It's widely used to treat a range of painful conditions, typically back pain, headaches and arthritis. Since January 2015, it has only been available in the UK with a prescription, but it can still be bought over the counter in most other countries, including the US and parts of Europe.”

     I have a distant and near faded memory of a bit of popular culture nonsense, Art Linkletter, Kids Say the Darndest Things. I typed this before doing a Google check, and the result is: wow, I got it right! This was a radio show, later developed into a TV series hosted by Black American  Bill Cosby. Say that name is familiar, where have we recently hear that? Oh, that’s right, he is a famous rapist:

     It is holiday season, and time to take a breathe from exploring the conspiracy to destroy the white race, and focus on more fun things, like chimps. Are they super-strong? Super-cute, but are chimps incredible Hulks? Sure, chimps on a bad day have been known to tear of people’s faces, but …
  https://www.newscientist.com/article/2138714-chimps-are-not-as-superhumanly-strong-as-we-thought-they-were/

“Chimpanzees do have stronger muscles than us – but they are not nearly as powerful as many people think. “There’s this idea out there that chimpanzees are superhuman strong,” says Matthew O’Neill at the University of Arizona in Phoenix. Yet his team’s experiments and computer models show that a chimpanzee muscle is only about a third stronger than a human one of the same size. This result matches well with the few tests that have been done, which suggest that when it comes to pulling and jumping, chimps are about 1.5 times as strong as humans relative to their body mass. But because they are lighter than the average person, humans can actually outperform them in absolute terms, say O’Neill. His findings suggest that other apes have similar muscle strength to chimpanzees. “Humans are the odd ones,” he says.”

     Here is one of those pieces sent to you by email, that drifts into your consciousness like the man with no name, blowing in from the windswept dust ridden landscape of modernity:

“A City of White Ghosts and Vanishing Memories
A former Vancouverite returns to ask, “What became of my people?”
It was a week of despair---and hope. A week of mourning---and faith in resurrection. It was a homecoming to a home that no longer exists. A city that fell victim to an invasion of incomprehensible scale, of overwhelming numbers and laundered money.
Last week I went to Vancouver, the city of my birth, the city where eons ago my grandparents first met, like tens of thousands of other European immigrants. My hope was that I would find traces of their legacy. I knew before my departure that the city had undergone massive and dramatic change in my decade long absence, that it was no longer just the gateway to Asia but a colony of Asia, and that some architectural landmarks had fallen to the wrecking ball of mass immigration and the pressure on land that follows from it. But never did I expect to see this much devastation, nor the ubiquity and predominance of Chinese migrants. No longer were they confined to the inner city and the suburb of Richmond, and other suburbs as well---including the one I grew up in. Every school ground, every sidewalk, every park, every mall was dominated by the Chinese. Not Chinese “Canadians”, but Chinese speaking Mandarin, as well as Cantonese. Their feet stand on Canada, but their heads have a different postal code.

     What has Europe done to deserve such rapid destruction, coming unstuck on all fronts?
  https://www.barrons.com/articles/europe-economic-crisis-is-coming-51545951011?

     Oh, I found a neat summary of this tale of economic woe to make life easier for our long-suffering eyes:

“Summary: Europe faces a huge future recession not because of intermediate factors like falling imports, but because its consumer spending is falling. The “yellow vests” could not wish for a better exoneration: the regulatory, class warfare based tax-and-spend welfare state ran out of money to steal from the wealthy alone, and so has begun to take from the middle class in order to support its diversity underclass (mostly Roma/Pakistanis, Muslims, Africans, Turks, Eastern Europeans). This means that people have less money and their daily expenses are higher, which drives down consumption. It took a few decades to see the results, but now we are at the point where government has dried up the well of its own citizens, who are most likely supplementing their purchases with more barter, gardening, and under-the-table cash jobs in order to avoid the dying economy.

     The Democrats and other cultural Marxist want to put president Trump in jail for having sex with some porn star, and allegedly paying her to keep quiet, even though many of them are the most sexually depraved people on the planet, or at least vicious:
  https://www.breitbart.com/entertainment/2018/12/28/kathy-griffin-to-trump-shut-the-fck-up-and-prepare-for-prison/

     Never mind that this is not illegal but a consenting act between adults, and that Bill Clinton has serious rape allegations. But, in the absurd world of Western collapse, this inversion of reality is to be expected. Now enter into this political scene, ageing film star Angelina Jolie, who now may make a presidential run:
  https://www.breitbart.com/middle-east/2018/12/28/angelina-jolie-hints-at-u-s-presidential-run/

     It would not be Christmas without the progressive degenerates waging the cultural war, and that means attacking the symbols of Christmas, bah humbug:
  https://vdare.com/posts/war-on-christmas-war-on-whites-war-on-white-christmass

     The story here is a bit involved and hard to summarise, but basically we know what it is; a white Christmas even one with snow is “racist,” because “white” is “racist.” Ok, that is what they say, why should I care how debating terms are arbitrarily defined? Let’s ask Uncle Jack.

     The evil globalist UN Migration pact is now in.
  https://www.cbc.ca/news/world/un-migration-conference-morocco-1.4938985

“A majority of UN states adopted on Monday a non-binding global pact to better handle migrant flows, Morocco's foreign minister said, though fewer governments joined than had previously worked on the proposal. Foreign Minister Nasser Bourita announced the decision as host of the UN conference in Marrakesh. There was no formal vote. In July, all 193 UN members except the United States finalized the so-called Global Compact for Safe, Orderly and Regular Migration to better handle migration. Since then, the text has come under fire from mostly right-wing European politicians, who say it could increase immigration from African and Arab countries. At least six European Union members — mostly in formerly Communist Eastern Europe — have shunned the accord. It was not immediately clear how many countries were in Marrakesh. The UN had put the number of governments registered late on Sunday at more than 150.”

     Once the Swedes were Vikings, but now they just want to die. To die as a people, first get rid of one’s cultural symbols, and the biological/genetic dissolution is easy:

“So Christmas is now called ‘winter celebration’ in Malmö? There you have it… Waiting to open my ‘winter presents’ lying under the ‘winter tree’ The offending published report was by Sydsvenskan, and described how Malmö is preparing for Christmas celebrations amidst the need for more security than in the past. They moved the celebration from Gustaf Adolf Square to larger Stortorget Square. The newspaper chose to call it “winter celebration” instead of Christmas and it has not gone over with members of the Swedish public. “So Christmas is now called ‘winter celebration’ in Malmö? There you have it”, user Nätsäkerhetsexpert tweeted. “Waiting to open my ‘winter presents’ lying under ‘winter tree'”, one user said sarcastically. “Is this the first time a newspaper non-ironically uses the world ‘Winter Celebration’ for Christmas in a news piece?”, user Alexander TixE queried. “Who wants to celebrate Scanian winter anyway? Dark, +3 degrees, wet snow and wind blowing at 13 metres per second”, one of the replies said.”

     The old Left, that which helped create the White Australia Policy, was anti-globalist, and nationalist. This Left was displaced by the 1960s revolution, which saw feminism and identity politics, filtered through cultural Marxism, arise. Yet, our enemies are not completely homogeneous, as an interesting article from the Left/socialist position by Angela Nagle, “The Left Case Against Open Borders,” details:
  https://americanaffairsjournal.org/2018/11/the-left-case-against-open-borders/

“The transformation of open borders into a “Left” position is a very new phenomenon and runs counter to the history of the organized Left in fundamental ways. Open borders has long been a rallying cry of the business and free market Right. Drawing from neoclassical economists, these groups have advocated for liberalizing migration on the grounds of market rationality and economic freedom. They oppose limits on migration for the same reasons that they oppose restrictions on the movement of capital. The Koch-funded Cato Institute, which also advocates lifting legal restrictions on child labor, has churned out radical open borders advocacy for decades, arguing that support for open borders is a fundamental tenet of libertarianism, and “Forget the wall already, it’s time for the U.S. to have open borders.” The Adam Smith Institute has done much the same, arguing that “Immigration restrictions make us poorer.”
