…from an extended down period over Passion Time and Easter Week.
The good news is that in my absence, there has not been too much new happening, or at least anything that has not been covered by my fellow bloggers.
As a shout out to Church Militant, they have been doing an awesome job of explaining and highlighting the soft financial underbelly of FrancisChurch and shining the disinfecting sunshine on the open sore that is FrancisChurch. (see here and here)
On the POLITICAL sub-set of the Visibilium Omnium, Sundance over at The Conservative Treehouse has been keeping us abreast of everthing having to do with the COUP D’ETAT launched against the Very Stable Genius President Donald J. Trump. (see here) Yes folks, this whole RUSSIAHOAX was a scheme to cover-up 4 years of illegal surveillance of US citizens, between 2012 and 2016, by guess who? The Obama Administration… is the correct response.
Remember folks, there is a Vatican angle here and his name could be Joseph Mifsud…
And over in the ACADEMIC sub-set of the Visibilium Omnium, Dr. Jordan B. Peterson has been hitting them out of the park. His latest “Coup”, excuse the metaphor is against the post-Modernists cum Marxists. In a debate with one of these non-Marxist Marxists, who now claims that he is a Hegelian, Dr. Peterson’s presence and intellectual prowess has created the situation where a Marxist can’t feel safe admitting he is a Marxist, even on his home turf, i.e. the typical college campus. See the debate here and one analysis of the debate here.
And finally, without going out too far afield, below is a republication from the always stablely “catholic” ZeroHedge with a great short post that explains the state of Western Civilization in general and also sheds light on the post-conciliar church and Francis, the clown of Rome in particular.
A world so insane that certainly it is being run as a joke. Absurd stories have been plaguing the media in the past few months that show just how crazy it is.
Above is a clip from last Thursday’s World Over broadcast. EWTN literally BLASTED the US FrancisPervChurch on all fronts. And the commentary on contemporary events was a very doctrinally Catholic one.
Nota bene: EWTN is very impressive these days and it would appear that their editorial line has decoupled from that of the USCCB.
At the other extreme, we have the responses to the “Covington Affair” controversy, wherein ALL the US Catholic Bishops, with the exception of two (Bps. Styka and Strickland) either criticized the young Catholics or remained silent. As Fr. Murray rightly points out, where is the JUSTICE!
The reason your humble blogger is bringing these occurences to your attention is due to the philosophical Law of Proper Thought known as the law of the excluded middle. The law of the excluded middle posits that: everything must either be or not be.
In other words, the two positions taken by EWTN and the USCCB respectively, cannot be reconciled.
In Platonic terms, one position must be True wherein the other, by default must be false.
But on the other hand there cannot be an intermediate between contradictories, but of one subject we must either affirm or deny any one predicate. This is clear, in the first place, if we define what the true and the false are.
Well, if this is the case, and it definitively is, then what is TRUE in terms of Catholic doctrine and what is FALSE, once again in terms of Catholic doctrine, is that the USCCB, with respect to the Covington affair, has found itself entrenched in a position that is doctrinally FALSE.
So the above is the theory.
Yet as we know, theories tend to have practical applications since they are, by defintion designed to resolve exiting problems.
And the practical application side is where the problem for the USCCB lies. Here is one recent example of this USCCB PROBLEM:
Now, why might it matter if Mr. Posobiec or Mr. Cernovich recognize and pronounce the demonic aspects behind the behaviour and decision making process of the USCCB?
One reason might be that Mr. Posobiec has a larger Twitter following than say …
Yes, that Tom Brokaw.
Now given that individuals like these above, openly commenting about the TRANSRATIONAL (as in formally irrational) behavior of the USCCB, are reaching more and more Catholics who are beginning to learn about what we in the Catholic blogosphere have been writing about all these years, this constitutes a major problem for the USCCB.
And it’s not a good development for the wider FrancisPervChurch and it’s not good on many different levels. One of these levels is once again the philosophical level, as posited by the Lex Armaticus’ Schmidberger Principle, namely:
Every abnormal situation inherently tends toward normalization. This is due to the nature of the matter.
In academic terms, this PROCESS is known as reverting back to the mean.
It is this PROCESS that we see in EWTN’s break with the editorial line of the USCCB. The simplist explanation for EWTN’s actions is that they need to revert back to doctrinally correct Catholicism in order to hold their viewership.
Which would mean that if the USCCB continue on its present doctrinal trajectory, what they will soon learn is that they have a “post-conciliar church” without any followers.
Therefore, the danger for the USCCB is this: when the Schmidberger Principle starts to force the USCCB’s doctrinal side back to solid Catholic doctrine, there might not be that many followers left.
Which might be just what Francis, the depopulator of Rome has in mind…
It must be bad for the Soros crowd if they need to try and completely suppress the Gilets Jaunes protests.
100,000 police on the streets of Paris this coming Saturday!
Below, the story from Zero Hedge!

France Moves To Ban All Protests As PM Announces Major Crackdown On Yellow Vests
France is signaling it’s making preparations for a massive new crackdown on the gilets jaunes or “yellow vests” anti-government protests that have gripped the country for seven weeks. A new law under consideration could make any demonstration illegal to begin with if not previously approved by authorities, in an initiative already being compared to the pre-Maiden so-called “dictatorship law” in Ukraine.
In the name of reigning in the violence that has recently included torching structures along the prestigious Boulevard Saint Germain in Paris, and smashing through the gates of government ministry buildings, the French government appears set to enact something close to a martial law scenario prohibiting almost any protest and curtailing freedom of speech.
Prime Minister Edouard Philippe presented the new initiative to curtail the violence and unrest while targeting “troublemakers” and banning anonymity through wearing masks on French TV channel TF1 on Monday. He said the law would give police authority crack down on “unauthorized demonstrations” at a moment when police are already arresting citizens for merely wearing a yellow vest, even if they are not directly engaged in protests in some cases.
PM Philippe said the government would support a“new law punishing those who do not respect the requirement to declare [protests], those who take part in unauthorized demonstrations and those who arrive at demonstrations wearing face masks”.
Philippe’s tone during the statements was one of the proverbial “the gloves are off” as he described the onus would be on “the troublemakers, and not taxpayers, to pay for the damage caused” to businesses and property.
“Those who question our institutions will not have the last word,” he added.
However, if anything the protests have grown fiercer in response to any police crackdown or violence against demonstrators. Should all protests be banned under the new law, it could be the start of more violent riots gaining steam, as what began Nov. 17 as anger over fuel tax hikes has now turned into rage at President Emmanuel Macron and policies that seem to favor the urban elite.
Other yellow vest inspired protests previously broke out across Europe, and in perhaps a sign of things to come a video from The Netherlands of a woman pushing her baby in a stroller being arrested by police apparently for merely wearing a yellow vest is going viral.
Shocking Video of police brutality in The #Netherlands of a Women being arrested yesterday, because she was wearing an Yellow Vest, and did not wanted to take it off. while walking with her baby in the streets. #YellowVests SHAME ON YOU DUTCH POLICE OFFICERS! RT this to the world pic.twitter.com/vL99D1ThW0
In the video, police confront the woman in what appears a quiet neighborhood far away from any visible protest. Police were photographed alongside the baby on the street as the mother was dragged away.
With the French prime minister now announcing coming draconian measures banning all protest, this is precisely the horrific scene that could begin to be repeated across France and the EU.
In total at least six people have died and over 1,400 people injured during the French protests, with thousands arrested weekly, according to international reports. Over the weekend some 50,000 protesters continued demonstrating in multiple cities, leading to significant clashes in Paris, Bordeaux and Rouen. A number of commentators have noted that though there appear fewer demonstrators compared to December, there appears a serious uptick in violent acts on the part of both demonstrators and police response.
So this above video of the opening monologue which Tucker Carlson gave on his first show of Anno Domini 2018 2019 (thks JTLiuzza) has gotten the New Year off with a BANG!
On a personal note, when this humble blogger launched the Deus ex Machina blog on that fateful day in 2014, never in his wildest imagination did he think that in 5 short years time, he would be witnessing the “Restoration of ALL thing in Christ”. And the word ALL would encompass ALL of the lands occupied by Western Civilization. Excuse the digression…
Speaking of the Restoration, the theme of this Carlson monologue could be restated as “The Re-Traditionalization of American social, cultural and economic life”. The video in fact contains a mild case for the quaint Aristotelian notion of bringing the mind into conformity with reality (‘adaequatio rei et intellectus’). Very mild in fact!
Yet as you can well imagine, after this segment aired mayhem ensued!
The left freaked out!
The Globalist Left is now going after Mr. Carlson’s sponsors in order to get him pull from the Fox News Channel.
But that “SUPPRESS REALITY” train has already left that station…
Below your humble blogger will provide some anecdotal evidence of what in fact is a movement to RE-TRADITIONALIZE the “living space” of those lands occupied by Western Civilization.
The RE-TRADITIONALIZATIONEVENTS are appearing in diverse sectors of public domain, mostly independent of each other. There might be one underlying force to all these sightings and that force could be the work of Dr. Jordan Peterson since he is being cited by several of these RE-TRADITIONALIZATION sources. But more on this in a later post…
So let’s go to the anecdotal evidence.
One video that appears to be going VIRAL at present is a Paul Joseph Watson tweet that references an interview given by His Eminence Cardinal Robert Sarah. Here is that tweet:
So one way of looking at the above is as an example of a “reintegration” of two subset of the Visibilium Omnium, i.e. the ECCLESIASTICAL and the COMMUNICATION (NEW MEDIA), just as the Lex Armaticus predicts.
Next up, the #nevertrumper Tom Luongo, and a post that appeared on the Zero Hedge website. Incidentally, Zero Hedge is becoming a sort of clearing site for all things RESTORATION these days. The title of the post is “I’ve Got My Yellow Vest, Do You?”In this post, Tom ties the Carlson video to the Yellow Vest protests and makes the following prescient observation:
Tying together Mitt Romney’s vulture capitalism, unchecked immigration, political corruption and the destruction of the middle class family, Carlson laid out a story that if everyone took off their ideological blinders for a few minutes (myself included) would see as simply a horror show.
Carlson’s thesis is that the American family is disintegrating. He’s right. But it’s not just America. It’s everywhere globalism has been the watchword of public policy, ie. Europe as well.
The Yellow Vests in France began protesting over a rise in diesel fuel tax to support climate change initiatives and has morphed into a full-blown revolt against globalism, neoliberalism and French government institutions.
In the film clip provided in post, Tom references Dr. Steve Turley’s term “RE-TRADITIONAIZATION” and claims that this is a correct representation of objective reality.
The Frankfurt School has become famous, being attacked by nationalists for spreading Marxism and attacking traditional values in Western universities. Wikipedia claims this is a “conspiracy theory” rather than simply an observation of historical fact, as notably documented by Kevin MacDonald (see Chapter 5 of his classic The Culture of Critique). The Frankfurt School both encouraged and was a reflection of the hard leftward shift of postwar Western culture. These academics were influential. Herbert Marcuse, a member of the School, was the guru of the 1960s student movement in the United States. Habermas, for his part, is practically the official intellectual of the European Union and the Federal Republic of Germany, with more awards than a Brezhnev-era apparatchik.
Anyway, all this is beginning to fade into the background. The state is still here. The nation is still here. The idea of republic is still here. Orbán represents a return to the reality principle, towards a world based on the realities of states and nations, rather than the fashions of the Davos set.
Yep!
And fast on the heals of the above post, come this via Brazil:
The real story, however, is Bolsonaro’s apparent commitment to the sort of ideological revolution that is desperately needed for his country to thrive. While history shows we should never trust a politician to deliver on lofty promises of liberty and freedom, the initial days of his presidency have moves deserving of praise.
To start, his inaugural address, Bolsonaro vowed to follow through on his campaign message of dramatically changing a government plagued by corruption and economic crisis:
I stand humbled by the honor to address you all as President of Brazil, and stand before the whole nation on this day as the day when the people began to liberate themselves from socialism, from the inversion of values, from state gigantism and from political correctness…
Our flag will never be red. It will only be red if we need to bleed over it to keep it green and yellow.
He followed this up with a tweet vowing “to tackle the Marxist garbage in our schools head on.”
And here, Mr. Bolsonaro is referring to the cultural Marxism underlying the Frankfurt School and the ideological foundation of political correctness.
Given that we are on a cultural Marxism theme, this post wouldn’t be worth a salt if it did not relate that which is happening in the home of the post Soviet cultural Marxists, the post-Modernists, i.e. France.
It appears that the Yellow Vests are not giving up and the Macron presidency is all but over. So much for the latest great hope for the Globalist forces!
On December 8, the day of the fourth demonstration, Paris was effectively set under siege. Armored vehicles were deployed along the main avenues. Thousands of police officers sealed off access to the neighborhood of the presidential residence, the Élysée Palace. A helicopter waited in the courtyard of the Élysée Palace, in case Macron needed to be evacuated. Looting and destruction began again.
And just to added that little bit of fuel to the fire lit under the French “god Jupiter”, we get this quote from Matteo “the great” Salvini:
Italy’s Interior Minister Matteo Salvini and his coalition partner have announced their support for France’s Yellow Vest movement, accusing French President Emmanuel Macron of being “against his people.”
“I support honest citizens protesting against a president who governs against his people,” Salvini said in a statement – while at the same time “firmly” condemning protesters who have resorted to violence.
So after many years (going on three four five to be exact) of writing about Francis, the post-Modernist of Rome and his FrancisChurch, and focusing on the psychological aspects of this FrancisPHENOMENONTRAGEDY, it is with great pleasure to observe that others are finally catching on.
The proper term for this turn of events is “WOKE”.
Here is the definition from the Urban Dictionary with an appended (and amended) example:
Although an incorrecttense of awake, a reference to how people should be aware in current affairs.
“While you are obessing with the Kardashians, the poor (who Our Lord taught “will always be with us” and whose numbers are dramatically shrinking over the last half century due to the adaptation of CAPITALIST economic models, which you Francis, Marxist of Rome, rail against on a never ending basis), there are millions of homelessdesperate SOULS seeking salvation, turning to clinical psychologists (like Dr. Jordan Peterson) for help, in the world. STAY WOKE“
MUST WATCH HERE: (3 MINUTES and 34 MUST WATCH SECONDS)
In the case of Francis and his FrancisChurch, what appears to be the case is that a wider array of “adjectived” Catholics, catholics and “c”atholics (e.g. “neo-con”, “conservative”, “moderate” – couldn’t resist) are GETTINGWOKE.
To be more exact, what these WOKE Catholics are beginning to realize is that the problem with Francis and his minions is not “theological” in nature (there is no theology there) but rather it is in essence PSYCHOLOGICAL.
Hence we are beginning to read about “gaslighting” in Catholic publications such as the excellent OnePeterFive blog (see here) or able to watch discussions on “gaslighting” on Dr. Taylor Marshall’s youtube channel. (Video below)
Faithful (and not so faithful) Catholics, catholics and “c”atholics are also becoming aware and deploying in their discussions on all things Francis, such concepts as the OVERTON WINDOW, i.e. “also known as the window of discourse, describing the range of ideas tolerated in public discourse.”
Given these positive developments that your humble blogger has chronicled above, one more element needs to be introduced to put all things Francis into its proper and OBJECTIVELY REAL perspective. And that element is:
A general discussion of what constitutes SANITY.
One can say that what needs to be defined is an OVERTON WINDOW of SANITY!
Just to make sure we are all on the same page, here is a diagram of how an OVERTON WINDOW is constructed:
If we change the poles to read “More Sane” and “Less Sane”, what we are in fact witnessing with Francis and his FrancisChurch is that they are trying to move the Overton Window of post-conciliar “theology” in the “Less Sane” direction.
Before we go further, the definition of sanity is:
Now if we look at the category of what constitutes SANE BEHAVIOR, we can fractionate (divide into fractions or components) this category further.
One qualifier for SANE BEHAVIOR is given as “SOUND MENTAL HEALTH”.
In this sub-category therefore, “sound SEXUAL BEHAVIOR” would need to be considered as an integral component. Furthermore, notice the descriptors used in the definition of “sanity”. Those terms are: “normal”, “rational”, again …”of sound mental health”, “reasonable”.
And here is where all the elements meet: The Francis, the Team Bergoglio conclave machinations,FrancisStrategy and the perpetual “synods”, FrancisChurch and the entire SoapBubblePapacy™ propped up solely at present by the #fakenewsVIRTUAL REALITYCatholic and MainStreamMedia.
It is through the Media’s attempt to NORMALIZEINTRINSICALLY DISORDERED behavior (shifting it from the Less Sane to the More Sane pole), which has allowed Francis and FrancisChurch the vehicle needed to change the Catholic Church’s Magisterial teaching with respect to said abnormality.
Concluding, the #fakenews MainStreamMedia, including Catholic media and FrancisChurch are partners in crime, in their attempt to NORMALIZE INTRINSICALLY DISORDERED BEHAVIOR!.
What else is becoming apparently visible and something that this humble blogger has been writing about for quite a while now, is the following:
Regardless of whether Bergoglio is INTRINSICALLY DISORDERED himself or just a homosexualist, he has no element inside the post-conciliar church, other than the INTRINSICALLY DISORDERED elements which he can trust, in order to carry out his FrancisIntrinsicallyDisorderdStrategy which the #fakenews media demands.
It’s the Faustian pact Francis made for keeping his entire SoapBubblePapacy™ propped up.
Therefore, whether he likes it or not, he must keep “Msgr.” Ricca at the Vatican Bank, he is stuck with FrancisCardinal Coco and his rent-boys in high Curial positions, not to mention in their CDF apartments and he can’t afford to allow himself to sever ties with either FrancisCardinal Wuerl or even FrancisArchbishop (or whatever his FrancisTitle is at present) McCarrick.
He is stuck with the INTRINSICALLY DISORDERED!
What’S more, the #fakenews media cannot afford to bring down FrancisChurch.
So they’re in a Mexican standoff, waiting for the first one to sneeze.
Nota bene: What will bring down FrancisChurch is those documents in the US State Department regarding the 2013 Conclave and the influence that TeamSoros had on the hijacking of said Conclave in order to elect Jorge Bergoglio as the mental unstable bishop of Rome.
So what we Catholics are witnessing is the #fakenews media, who are rapidly losing all credibility, propping up a criminally corrupt FrancisChurch who is also rapidly losing its credibility and adding to the #fakenews media problems.
In other words, what the newly WOKE Catholics are witnessing and will continue to witness, is nothing short of a joint #fakenews media- FrancisChurch race to the bottom!
As your humble blogger is writing this post, the #LumenFidei conference is taking place in Dublin Ireland. Bree Dail is at the conference and put up this tweet.
And as you can well imagine dear and loyal reader, it had to catch your humble blogger’s even more humble eye.
The significance of the above is that the Catholic world, post l’affair Uncle Ted is finally beginning to identify the ROOT CAUSE of the problem. And they are speaking about it openly at international conferences now.
Over in another sub-set of the Visibilium Omnium, our friend Tom Luongo also makes a very similar observation and also speaking out about the menace to Western Civilization that is George Soros.
Further, Tom identifies a very interesting strategic aspect to Soro’s operations. If the information is correct, Soros is attempting to secure control of the information disseminated over the social media networks. Which no doubt is correct.
What makes this situation even more interesting is the fact that it appears as if money is no object. The #fakenews legacy media is committing suicide in the process. Case in point, during the second week of May of this year, CNN’s total viewership dropped by a staggering 30%. Yet it doesn’t look like anybody at the network is panicking, nor does it appear that the shareholders of the parent company even care.
Oh well, so much for maximizing shareholder value!
Yet we know that money does matter. Case in point, the Irish media is reporting that Francis still needs €5 000 000 to fund his #homoclericalist jaunt to Ireland for the FrancisFamily gathering. Aside, where is Bono when you need him?
And finally, it would appear that the #fakenews legacy media is beginning to abandon Francis, the homoclericalist of Rome. Over at the #fakenews Washington Post, we get this opinion piece, as presented by Damian Thompson:
… as if there could be two living popes!
Anyway..
And finally, what would a Deus ex Machina post be without a @jordanbpeterson reference. Your humble blogger came across this gem in which Dr. Peterson and Bret Weinstein do some ‘splaining to one of those cookie cutout “atheists”.
What is of note is the comments by the narrator. Notice how the entire “atheist” narrative and social trend is crumbling?
And it’s all due to one individual who explains that which is known through “natural light of human reason from the things that are made, speaks Truth and “acts as if God exists”.
“You either die a Hero, Or you live long enough to see yourself become the Villain. ”
— The Dark Knight
George Soros has made that transformation into the Villain. Not that he was ever the Hero, but he is in his mind.
He is the embodiment of the idea floated by John Barth that “Man can do no wrong.”
This is something that good writers understand, villains never see themselves as villains. In their mind, they can do no wrong, that what they are doing is for the common good or a better world.
I’m binge-watching The Americans with my wife (just finished Season 3, no spoilers please) and the slow dawning realization on all of the character’s faces that what they are doing is destroying their souls has become the dominant narrative drive.
I suspect that the second half of the show’s run will focus on extricating themselves from this nightmare.
This is what makes it compelling story-telling, if massively contrived as all TV storytelling needs to be.
To this day, George Soros still doesn’t see himself as the Villain. But he is. He always has been. Not because of his insane devotion to his open society ideology but because of what it has driven him to do in the name of it.
He has bankrupted multiple countries, profited off their demise which he set in motion through the undermining of native cultural institutions. He did it was calculated precision and cold determination.
In the process he destroyed and/or disrupted tens of millions, if not hundreds of millions of lives, all to serve his ideological goals of universal serfdom for us and unlimited power for himself.
But, he doesn’t see it that way. He sees it as the necessary broken eggs to further the evolution of the species into a better and nobler iomelette.
Let that sink in for a second.
And that megalomania has now truly jumped the proverbial shark.
The worst-kept secret in political circles beyond Hillary’s emails is the infamous 49-page memo distributed by Soros and Media Matters’ David Brock to a group of insiders laying out their strategy to destroy Donald Trump with the help of social media giants like Facebook is rearing its head again.
Much of that strategy has been played out in the wake of the de-platforming of Alex Jones and other non-Progressive voices.
Media Matters met with Facebook, which boasts some 2 billion members worldwide, to discuss how to crack down on fake news, according to the memo.
The social media giant was provided with “a detailed map of the constellation of right-wing Facebook pages that had been the biggest purveyors of fake news.”
Brock’s memo also says Media Matters gave Google “the information necessary to identify 40 of the worst fake new sites” so they could be banned from Google’s advertising network.
The Gateway Pundit pointed out that in 2016, Google carried out that plan on the Gateway Pundit blog and other conservative sites, including Breitbart, the Drudge Report, Infowars, Zero Hedge and Conservative Treehouse.
Facebook, meanwhile has changed its newsfeed algorithm, ostensibly to combat “fake news,” causing a precipitous decline in traffic for many conservative sites.
President Donald Trump himself was affected, with his engagement on Facebook dropping by 45 percent.
A study in June by Gateway Pundit found Facebook had eliminated 93 percent of the traffic of top conservative news outlets.
Western Journal, in its own study, found that while left-wing publishers saw a roughly 2 percent increase in web traffic from Facebook following the algorithm changes, conservative sites saw a loss of traffic averaging around 14 percent.
No one should be surprised by these numbers. But, they should also not be scared by them either. Because despite this overwhelming push to stifle opposition voices to Soros’ and Brock’s, frankly treasonous activities, these alternative voices have continued to flourish.
Peak Soros
First it was Russia that got tired of Soros’ regime change operations, ousting his Open Society Foundation as a fifth column operation. Then more recently Hungarian President Viktor Orban joined Putin in his crusade against him, passing a similar anti-NGO law.
Orban made Soros the centerpiece of his re-election strategy which worked beautifully.
And with the super-majority earned by his Fidesz coalition passed his “anti-Soros” bill in the legislature, severely limiting the activities of foreign NGOs (Non-Governmental Organizations) and bringing to light the sources of their funding.
Kozlovska along with Open Dialogue Foundation was, as always, organizing protests against the Polish government and thrown out to curtail their efforts to block judicial reforms which would give Poland far more control over the adjudication of its laws.
There are rumblings that similar anti-NGO laws are being considered in Romania as well. All of Eastern Europe is moving away from Soros’ neoliberal agenda of open borders and the homogenization of culture.
He knows what the consequences of that will be, intense social upheaval, along with political and economic paralysis and invites it. The push to include all of these countries into both the EU and NATO was done to create vectors of corruption into the political and economic fabric of these countries.
And the people of Eastern Europe, after two generations of stifling authoritarian control, are reclaiming their cultural and religious roots.
All these utopian, (murderous) projects effectively flowed from a style of mechanical, single-track, thinking that had evolved in Europe, over the centuries, and which seated the unshakeable sense of one’s own certainty and conviction — in the West European thinker, at least.
These supposedly empirically-arrived-at certitudes – seated now in the human ego – triggered a re-awakening precisely to those early Judeo-Christian, apocalyptic notions: That history, somehow, was on a convergent course towards some human transformation, and an ‘End’, with fearful retribution for the corrupt, and a radically, redeemed, new world, for the elect. No longer (in today’s world), triggered through an act of God, but ‘engineered’ by the act of Enlightenment man.
Here Crooke is speaking directly to Soros who admits to having a ‘god-complex.’ But, he’s also speaking to the deeper impulses which form the foundation of Trump’s success, especially in his campaign slogan, “Make America Great Again,” come.
There is that inherent bias within American culture that now assumes our superiority and equates our national interest stopping the growth of other foreign powers. This definitely suffuses Trump’s thinking which is where he finds common ground with neoconservatives in both his cabinet and Israel (or do I repeat myself?).
And this is why things are so confusing right now. Because Soros and his cohort, David Brock, are engaged in binding Trump down with cries of “Treason” and his illegitimacy due to Russian collusion while stoking a devolution of political discourse to the stage of monkeys lobbing feces at each other.
While on the other hand it is making it easy for Trump to embrace some of the most unsavory aspects of the American empire by engaging in aggressive hybrid war tactics against anyone who dares to defy him, especially Iran who he has a fundamental blind spot for.
The End of Soros-ism
In my mind this is the legacy of Ron Paul’s libertarian insurgency of 2008 and 2012, which has blossomed into a world-wide ‘populist’ political phenomenon. Paul almost effortlessly punctured so many of the neoconservative/Trotskyite myths of American’s continued obsession with Manifest Destiny and the Utopian dreams of making heaven on earth.
This impulse comes from all sides of the political spectrum which is how the Uniparty — the ideologically-united leadership of the Democrats and Republicans — has maintained power for so long.
But, the demographic shift occurring now with the baton of power passing from the Baby Boomers (desperately clinging to their positions of power, like McCain, Feinstein, Pelosi, etc.) to Generation X, who don’t buy all this National Greatness garbage since we grew up in the aftermath of the last great ideological war, the Cold War, will be the death of “Soros-ism.”
This is why Soros moved out of betting explicitly on currency markets and made strategic investments in social media. He understood this was the means by which to maintain his control of the narrative for just a little while longer.
It’s why he and Brock held a conference producing a 49 page strategy memo to destroy Trump.
But, it will end up a bad investment, a losing bet. He’s not a god, but he has been revealed to be the Villain and at 89 he’s lived just long enough to see himself revealed as such to the world and to see everything he’s built crumble into dust.
The institutions of his making are failing. Marxism’s inherent flaws and socialism’s methodological errors cannot be sustained in perpetuity. He can’t repeal the laws of economics anymore than he can rewrite the laws of physics.
Our shared history, our culture and the things that drive us are embedded deep in our memories, imprinted on our DNA. And they will not be wiped out in a vain attempt to continue making the New Soviet Man without a past, without a culture.
The pendulum always swings back the other way. And we as a species are willing to explore all options on our path to a better version of ourselves. So, we’ll spend a lifetime or two exploring the possibilities of Marxism, ultimately to reject it for the Utopian fantasy that it is and which drives men mad.
I like to think of humanity the same way that Winston Churchill thought of Americans. “You can always count on Americans to do the right thing – after they’ve tried everything else.”
I think humanity has had its fill of George Soros.
Here’s something from the “conspiracy theory quickly moving toward conspiracy fact” category.
I will just put this up here for the time being…
Will return in a follow up post, since it’s very similar to what is happening in other Western countries, namely Italy, Hungary and Poland. What these countries have in common is that they have broken away from the New World Order and the New World Order people are not happy about it.
Greetings after a short vacation spent with the extended family. Today we return to our irregular summer posting. Given that it’s summer, I will try to incorporate multiple themes into these posts. We start off today with a “state of the post-conciliar church” themed post.
As all of my dear and loyal readers know, the post-conciliar church is in the midst of another “spirit of the new springtime of VII” generated scandal. The scandal relates to one “UNCLE TED” and the latest in line situation where aberro-sexual intrinsically disordered clerics populated some of the post-conciliar seminaries with… well… the intrinsically disordered.
And as we now know, this “experiment” did not end well.
Now, and as you dear readers might suspect, this post will not go down the regular “chronicling the intrinsically disordered” route. What your humble blogger will do instead is remind all my dear and faithful readers about some of the higher level, big picture concepts that we have been developing over the life of this blog.
One of these meta-themes has been the chronicling of what can be termed as the “Petersonian understanding of the human condition”, as provided by Dr. Jordan B. Peterson, and subsequent used by your humble blogger who has been applying this “body of knowledge” to what is happening in the post-conciliar church.
At this point, I would like to draw your attention to the photo embedded at the top of this post. The photo was found on a Zero Hedge post titled Comey Freaks Out, Begs Fellow Democrats To Dump “Socialist Left” (see here). In this photo, I would like to draw your attention to two aspects, namely the lobster claw and the underlying presupposition that leftist IDEOLOGIES always propose a secular utopia at the back end.
“Just trust me!”
So first, the lobster claw. This reference here has to Serotonon, the monoamine neurotransmitter whose functions include, but are not limited to “the regulation of mood, appetite, and sleep. Serotonin also has some cognitive functions, including memory and learning. Modulation of serotonin at synapses is thought to be a major action of several classes of pharmacological antidepressants”. (see here) And as we know from the Cathy Newman interview, the lobster’s nervous system also is regulated by… wait for it… Serotonon. (see here)
So why am I bringing this to your attention?
The reason your humble blogger is highlighting this above lobster example used by Dr. Peterson, is that it demonstrates that the things we know about God’s creation, i.e. those known through “natural light of human reason from the things that are made” , cannot be disassociated from those things that are known through “divine revelation.”
In other words, if God made man and made lobsters, these natural science elements needs to be “reflected” in whatever “theology” is developed, if that theology is to explain anything about the relationship between God and His creation, in this case that part of creation that He made in His image.
And that is exactly what Dr. Peterson is doing in his lectures, especially in his Biblical Series. And now, the spread of this Petersonian approach, dare I say “doctrine” can be now spotted in the wider public domain. Hence, the embedded photo at the top of this page.
A modern day St. Thomas Aquinas folks!
Which brings us to the second observation and that is this: ALL leftist ideologies are founded on an underlying presupposition that they know the ingredients to the “secret sauce”… so to say, that will allow them, when they take POWER naturally, to finally create that secular UTOPIA. (seehere)
On this blog, we call these folks the FrancisIdeologues.
So today, we go over to the Zero Hedge website for another post that appeared about a week of so ago. The post is written by a former FrancisIdeologue who has realized the error of his ways. Or rather, the “realization was forced upon him”. What is interesting in the story is the PROCESS that said individual went through on his very own “road to Damascus”.
So how does this tie into Uncle Ted and the post-conciliar church?
The reason that this humble blogger is bringing this testimonial EVIDENCE to your attention is that this same PROCESS is taking hold among another sector of individuals in the ECCLESIASTICAL sub-set of the Visibilium Omnium, who have found themselves in a TRANSRATIONAL sect which is quickly disintegrating.
I drive food delivery for an online app to make rent and support myself and my young family. This is my new life. I once had a well paid job in what might be described as the social justice industry. Then I upset the wrong person, and within a short window of time, I was considered too toxic for my employer’s taste.
I was publicly shamed, mobbed, and reduced to a symbol of male privilege. I was cast out of my career and my professional community. Writing anything under my own byline now would invite a renewal of this mobbing – which is why, with my editor’s permission, I am writing this under a pseudonym. He knows who I am.
In my previous life, I was a self-righteous social justice crusader.
I would use my mid-sized Twitter and Facebook platforms to signal my wokeness on topics such as LGBT rights, rape culture, and racial injustice. Many of the opinions I held then are still opinions that I hold today. But I now realize that my social-media hyperactivity was, in reality, doing more harm than good.
Within the world created by the various apps I used, I got plenty of shares and retweets. But this masked how ineffective I had become outside, in the real world. The only causes I was actually contributing to were the causes of mobbing and public-shaming. Real change does not stem from these tactics. They only cause division, alienation, and bitterness.
How did I become that person?
It happened because it was exhilarating. Every time I would call someone racist or sexist, I would get a rush. That rush would then be reaffirmed and sustained by the stars, hearts, and thumbs-up that constitute the nickels and dimes of social media validation. The people giving me these stars, hearts, and thumbs-up were engaging in their own cynical game: A fear of being targeted by the mob induces us to signal publicly that we are part of it.
Just a few years ago, many of my friends and peers who self-identify as liberals or progressives were open fans of provocative standup comedians such as Sarah Silverman, and shows like South Park. Today, such material is seen as deeply “problematic,” or even labeled as hate speech. I went from minding my own business when people told risqué jokes to practically fainting when they used the wrong pronoun or expressed a right-of-center view. I went from making fun of the guy who took edgy jokes too seriously, to becoming that guy.
When my callouts were met with approval and admiration, I was lavished with praise: “Thank you so much for speaking out!” “You’re so brave!” “We need more men like you!”
Then one day, suddenly, I was accused of some of the very transgressions I’d called out in others. I was guilty, of course: There’s no such thing as due process in this world. And once judgment has been rendered against you, the mob starts combing through your past, looking for similar transgressions that might have been missed at the time. I was now told that I’d been creating a toxic environment for years at my workplace; that I’d been making the space around me unsafe through microaggressions and macroaggressions alike.
Social justice is a surveillance culture, a snitch culture. The constant vigilance on the part of my colleagues and friends did me in. That’s why I’m delivering sushi and pizza. Not that I’m complaining. It’s honest work, and it’s led me to rediscover how to interact with people in the real world. I am a kinder and more respectful person now that I’m not regularly on social media attacking people for not being “kind” and “respectful.”
I mobbed and shamed people for incidents that became front page news. But when they were vindicated or exonerated by some real-world investigation, it was treated as a footnote by my online community. If someone survives a social justice callout, it simply means that the mob has moved on to someone new. No one ever apologizes for a false accusation, and everyone has a selective memory regarding what they’ve done.
Upon reading Jon Ronson’s 2015 book, So You’ve Been Publicly Shamed, I recently went back into my Twitter archives to study my own behavior. I was shocked to discover that I had actually participated quite enthusiastically in the public shaming of Justine Sacco, whose 2013 saga following a bad AIDS joke on Twitter forms one of the book’s central case studies.
My memory had told me different. In my mind, I didn’t really participate. It was others who took things too far. In reality, the evidence showed that I was among the most vicious of Sacco’s mobbers. Ronson describes a central problem with Twitter shaming: There is a “disconnect between the severity of the crime and the gleeful savagery of the punishment.” For years, I was blind to my own gleeful savagery.
I recently had a dream that played out in the cartoon universe of my food-delivery app, the dashboard software that guides my daily work life. The dream turned my workaday drive into a third-person video game, with my cartoon car standing in for me as protagonist. At some point, I started missing some of the streets, and the little line that marks my trail with blue pixels indicated where I’d gone off-road. My path got erratic, and the dream became other-worldly, as dreams eventually do. I drove over cartoon sidewalks, through cartoon buildings and cartoon parks. It’s a two-dimensional world in the app, so everything was flat. Through the unique logic of dreams, I survived all of this, all the while picking up and dropping off deliveries and making money. In my dream, I was making progress.
As my REM cycle intensified, my dream concluded. I was jolted from my two-dimensional app world and thrust back into the reality of the living world – where I could understand the suffering, carnage and death I would have caused by my in-app actions. There were bodies strewn along the streets, screaming bystanders, destroyed lives, chaos. My car, by contrast, was indestructible while I was living in the app.
The social justice vigilantism I was living on Twitter and Facebook was like the app in my dream.
Aggressive online virtue signaling is a fundamentally two-dimensional act. It has no human depth. It’s only when we snap out of it, see the world as it really is, and people as they really are, that we appreciate the destruction and human suffering we caused when we were trapped inside.
For a quick reminder, the modified MISSION of the Deus ex Machine blog calls for providing information obtained through sensory data and empirical EVIDENCE which relates directly or indirectly to what is colloquially known as the Francis “magisterium”.
The reason for this need is that Francis has adopted a number of leftist policy initiatives, both theological and secular and has conflated them to his “teaching magisterium”. In a couple of recent posts, your humble blogger has pointed out the problems with just two of Francis’ pet “teachings”.
In the post titled Quo Vadis Patres – Vatican Catering Services Inc. Perhaps?, we pointed out that Catholic clerics are beginning to realize the “policy changes” that Francis is introducing. The specific change is what can be called the “protestantization” of the post-conciliar church. Francis and his team are denying the ONTOLOGICAL reality of the Holy Sacraments, while trying to replace their apex ordering in Catholic theology with minor at best, principles of general ethics (attenuating factors, the relationship between universal norm and subjective situation, non-imputability, etc.)
The empirical EVIDENCE for the disastrous outcome that will result from these changes will be exactly like those of the protestant sects. These disastrous results can best be seen in the below Markus Günther article from the December 29, 2014 that appeared in the Frankfurter Allgemeine Zeitung: (see here)
But why are the seekers no longer finding guidance? Why are the supply and demand no longer jibing? The most popular answer to this question is: because the Church is no longer relevant to the times. She must conform more closely to the realities of the lives of modern people. Initially, that sounds plausible, but under closer scrutiny reveals itself to be idiocy. For the Evangelical church in Germany has done nearly everything which is being demanded from the Catholic Church in order to become more relevant to the times: women priests, the elimination of celibacy, liberality in moral theology, the complete acceptance of homosexuals and the divorced. If these were the real reasons for the malaise of Christendom, the Protestants should be far better off than the Catholics. But that simply isn’t the case. A second error in thinking is introduced by the popular buzzword “relevant to the times” [German: zeitgemäß, which can mean “modern,” “suitable,” or even “appropriate,” and often carries all of these shades when applied to the Church]: Wherever the Church does not base herself upon timeless, incontrovertible truth, she reveals herself to be purely man-made. Political programs should be “relevant to the times,” entertainment programming, too; but a religion must take command of absolute truths – or it is no religion at all.
In a second post titled Francis, The Depopulation Huckster Of Rome Whiffs Again…, we presented EMPIRICAL EVIDENCE that another of Francis’ “policy” bugaboos is also not OBJECTIVELY CORRECT. This specific change has to do with the FrancisDoctrine of “GLOBAL OVERPOPULATION“. For those who might have already forgotten, Francis and his team have held conferences on this FrancisDoctrine, inviting such luminaries to speak as Paul Ehrlich and Jeffery Sachs.
However, the EMPIRICAL EVIDENCE appears to debunk this Francis”policy”, which we presented in the republication of a post that appeared on the Zero Hedge website titled The Global Economy Is Running Out Of Its Most Valuable Resource. The resource in question is: PEOPLE. Here is that passage:
All productive nations whether in East Asia or the West, have reached the peak of their 250-year-long development. Even the most devastating wars could not prevent their populations from growing in the long run. It is only now, during the many decades of peace and affluence, that the numbers of the inhabitants of the developed countries have been decreasing and the trend continues. The phenomenon has not been brought about by any famine or natural disaster but by the sheer fact that people do not want to have children.
And to add fuel to this madness, the FrancisChurch is now launching a new assault on the anti-contracption Papal Encyclical Humanae Vitae. (see here)
So given Francis’ horrendous track record with leftist policy issues, is it any wonder that Francis is striking out again, this time with GLOBAL COOLING/WARMING/CLIMATE CHANGE. As you dear reader will most likely recall, Francis even wrote a FrancisDocument called Laudato Si.
Most recently, we get this passage via the Zero Hedge website: (see here)
As Francis has continued to sound more like an activist and less like God’s highest authority on Earth, he is set to hold a three-week synod, or conference of bishops, specifically to address the ecological crisis in the Amazon. Francis has said that deforestation threatens to destroy the “lung” of the Earth, as well as the indigenous tribes who live in the rainforest.
So in the above, we see Francis’ new “magisterial policy” pertaining to GLOBAL WARMING AND CLIMATE CHANGE, while the OBJECTIVE REALITY is somewhat different.
Below is a short post with some tables and graphs that shows what is the REALITY and what it looks like.
Concluding, what we see is another liberal cause that Francis has appropriated for his “magisterial teaching” which turns out to be FAKE. The PATTERN of FAKE CAUSES that Francis has associated himself and FrancisChurch with are quite numerous not to notice.
Which also brings to mind another issue, and that issue has to do with the caricature that the Catholic Church is “anti-science”. From the EVIDENCE presented here and in the other mentioned post, there appears to be some credence to this charge.
With the caveat that this charge is legitimate when speaking about FRANCISCHURCH.
Which just makes the drawing of a distinction between FrancisChurch and the Holy Roman Catholic Church all the more urgent.
But more on this in a follow-up post.
In the mean time though, I hope the upper and middle management behind the Sacred Vatican Walls are taking note.
Quo Vadis Patres?

CO2 Emissions Hit 67-Year Low In Trump’s America, As Rest-Of-World Rises
We suspect you won’t hear too much about this from the liberal mainstream media, or the environmental movement, or even Al Gore – but, according to the latest energy report from The Energy Information Administration (EIA), under President Trump, per-capita carbon dioxide emissions are now the lowest they’ve been in nearly seven decades.
Even more interesting is the fact that US carbon emissions dropped while emissions from energy consumption for the rest of the world increased by 1.6%, after little or no growth for the three years from 2014 to 2016.
The U.S. emitted 15.6 metric tons of CO2 per person in 1950. After rising for decades, it’s declined in recent years to 15.8 metric tons per person in 2017, the lowest measured levels in 67 years.
And as The Daily Caller reports, in the last year, U.S. emissions fell more than 0.5% while European emissions rose 2.5% (and Chinese emissions rose 1.6% along with Hong Kong’s 7.0% surge), according to BP world energy data – an ironic turn of events given Europe’s shaming of Trump for leaving the Paris climate accord.
So today we continue with a theme, which is in essence a UNIVERSALIST theme. By definition, something that is UNIVERSAL is:
(1): including or covering all or a whole collectively or distributively without limit or exception; especially: available equitably to all members of a society – universal health coverage
(2) a : present or occurring everywhere
b : existent or operative everywhere or under all conditions – universal cultural patterns
(3) a: embracing a major part or the greatest portion (as of humankind) – a universal state – universal practices
b: comprehensively broad and versatile – a universal genius
(4) a : affirming or denying something of all members of a class or of all values of a variable
b: denoting every member of a class – a universal term
(5): adapted or adjustable to meet varied requirements (as of use, shape, or size) – a universal gear cutter – a universal remote control
And the operative definitions for our purposes are (2) and (4).
When looking at Catholic doctrine, especially that codified in the UNIVERSALMAGISTERIUM, is by definition UNIVERSAL, i.e. TRUEeverywhere, always and for everyone.
In the last post, your humble blogger pointed out the issue of POVERTY and the manner in which the Church of Francis has completely lost the plot on this issue. Specifically, the Catholic Church, and especially the next Roman Pontiff, will need to reassess the post-conciliar church’s “public policy” to this temporal issue.
The reason why the post-conciliar church will need to re-think its approach to POVERTY, is that it contains ERROR. In other words, the post-conciliar church’s approach lack UNIVERSALITY.
Therefore, it is not sustainable.
Our present body of knowledge, already has disproved the PRESUPPOSITIONS (Marxist in nature) upon which FrancisChurch functions with respect to this issue. And FrancisChurch will need to change its “teaching” on capitalism in the process, as demonstrated in the Dr. Jordan Peterson video.
Below is another “hot button” issue on which FrancisChurch has lost the plot. This issue is what used to be known as “OVER-POPULATION”.
The FrancisChurch position on the “OVER-POPULATION” has a more onerous and self-contradictory element to it, than it has with the POVERTY issue. With respect to the POVERTY issue, the teaching of Our Lord tells us that the POOR will always be with us. So the Universal Church’s historical teaching, in its infinite wisdom, has had ERROR free teaching on this subject since its founding.
With respect to OVER-POPULATION, the FrancisChurch position is in essence an antithetical position to Catholic Church teaching, as codified in HUMANAE VITAE.
Last year, FrancisChurch even invited Paul Ehrlich, the author of The Population Bomb and titular head proponent of global depopulation, to its Pontifical Academy of Science (PAS) and the Pontifical Academy of Social Sciences (PASS) hosted international conference on the environment. (see here)
And more recently, we find out that the Catholic teaching on the sanctity of human life is about to be “revised” as well. (see here)
And just as it did with adopting a functional Marxist approach to the problem of POVERTY, FrancisChurch is also struck out with its policy on GLOBAL DEPOPULATION.
Below is what everybody in the “public policy” world that deals with the problem of DEPOPULATION is talking about, but none dare speaks its name. The 800 lb gorilla in the roome is that global population has reached its peak and will be starting its decline in the foreseeable future.
And this is raising a whole host of problems, which the post below goes into with greater detail.
Concluding, what this humble blogger would like to NOTE is that if the post-conciliar church wants to maintain its relevance, it must return to explaining the place of man in His creation with a sense of REALITY.
The REALITY is that DEPOPULATION will create a global crisis in the not too distant future. Hosting international conferences on the environment at the Vatican, with guests who are in essence debunked pseudo-scientific hucksters like Paul Ehrlich is… well… counter-productive.
So figuratively speaking, Francis whiffs again…
Credible it’s not.
So as Francis, the DEPOPULATION HUCKSTER of Rome “progresses” his FrancisFlock back to a 1960’s VIRTUAL REALITY, it might be a good idea for the upper and middle management of the VATICAN to begin taking on board the OBJECTIVE REALITY of the “magisterium” that Francis is peddling and start planning for the post-Francis post-conciliar church.
One final though. If the middle and upper management would want to become RELEVANT, not to mention SUSTAINABLE in the shortest possible time frame, it would be wise to abrogate the post-conciliar “religion of the new spring time of VII” and return to Catholicism.
Just a thought!
The Global Economy Is Running Out Of Its Most Valuable Resource
The current state of the financial markets and the global economy depends on one single resource that nobody, even such renowned economists as Paul Krugman or Robert J. Shiller and dissenters like Max Keiser and Jim Rickards, dares to talk about. In private discussions central bank managers told us that they were aware that none of the existing economic theories and models fit this new situation.
Yet, they do not broach it in their public speeches and lectures, preferring to deal with such topics as balance sheets and business cycles. All of which reminds one of a family visiting a terminally sick relative: everybody knows that he will never recover, and nobody whispers as much as a word about it.
All productive nations whether in East Asia or the West, have reached the peak of their 250-year-long development. Even the most devastating wars could not prevent their populations from growing in the long run. It is only now, during the many decades of peace and affluence, that the numbers of the inhabitants of the developed countries have been decreasing and the trend continues. The phenomenon has not been brought about by any famine or natural disaster but by the sheer fact that people do not want to have children.
Japan is an economic bellwether. The country refrained from mass migration and during the 2006-2016 period its population shrank by 0.5%, oil consumption dropped by 22%, car sales by 7% and GDP by 4%.
Japan is the first country to cope with the new reality and investors need to change their mindset to understand what this new reality stands for. In the past, every business cycle, recession or recovery, ended with a higher GDP and larger economy than before. In the future we will see the opposite: every business cycle will conclude with a lower GDP and a smaller economy than the previous one.
A shrinking population entails economic consequences. Oil consumption will decline, car sales will go down, and national GDP will be lower and lower. The paradox of it all is that the total economy may be shrinking, and yet people in the US, Europe and Japan will be doing better than before. Why? Because a less crowded country means less dependence on (foreign) oil, lower pollution and CO2 emissions, fewer traffic jams, more space and food abundance.
It is the financial sector that will be afflicted by the new reality, not the people. Without the support of central banks the Western financial industry will not survive a continued depopulation, a situation in which people save and spend less and less money. A buoyant economy invests in win-win deals, a stable economy is a zero-sum game, and in a depressed economy all investors lose. That is why central bankers are considering the imposition of negative interest rates. These are flashing warning signals.
Confronted with this reality, the American and European leaderships have opted for re-population. If the pace of this process remains the same, before this century is over, 50% of the Western states will be replaced with people from the Third World.
The Washington establishment began with the acceptance of unprecedented numbers of migrants from Latin America while the enlargement of the European Union made up for the lack of people, at least for the time being. As under the banner of the free movement of labour, Germany, the UK and the Netherlands got a fair share of migrants from Central Europe, this part of the continent has been deprived of its youth. For example the Polish generation in the age bracket 15-20 is 30% smaller. Now it is Ukraine’s turn to hand over its youth to Western Europe. After the 2014 revolt in Kiev the European Union was in a desperate hurry to grant Ukrainian “patriots” the right of visa-free travel, so that they could leave their allegedly beloved home country.
Demographics is quite precise, and those in power saw the coming “disaster” in advance. Peter Sutherland, a former Goldman Sachs banker, became an advocate of mass migration. In 2008 he said: “Rich countries should not try to restrict migration from poor countries, even during the economic slowdown.” Alas, migration is not about helping the poor – there are just too many of them – migration is about re-populating Europe. Migration is also about economics and finance.
All theories, all models that we know about the economy, finance and markets were developed when the European populations grew. The global economy is dependent on the industrialized world. Without Europe, the Sheikhs of Dubai would relapse into the life in tents, Africa’s population would be about 90 million instead of 1.2 billion, and today’s US would be a sparsely populated country with very few nomad tribes.
Prestigious consultancy firms have told their corporate clients that all societies are in essence the same and well on the way to becoming like Western economies. The Africans only need to change the law, and they will be as productive, diligent and efficient as people in Europe. Those pundits believe that if car sales stall in Europe, China will be the next market; if the Chinese market is flooded, we have still India, and then – probably around 2040 – the Africans will be the new customers.
We believe that the world’s economy is concentrated in East Asia and in the West, with all other economies being but satellites, and it is not going to change, at least in the foreseeable future. If the West together with Eastern Asia collapse, the rest of the world will follow suit. If the West and Eastern Asia stop being interested in African resources, the Black Continent will crumble. We remind the reader that all African countries are dependent on food imports which they finance with the exports of commodities. Africa cannot sustain its current population let alone the doubling of it within 25 years. 50% of the African youth is younger than 25.
The consultancies of Ernst and Young call these youngsters “demographic dividend”, a treasure trove for the global companies to reap. If they cannot capitalize on them in Africa, they have to bring them to Europe, as we see happening now. The current migration process which goes by the name of crisis is engineered and promoted by an influential lobby.
So after many years (going on
