You know who had to live in 1945 Germany? Germans.

The Syrians did this to themselves. Not the Red Army or Americans.

Germans were simply reaping the consequences of the insane cult of National Socialism. Germans elected National Socialism by their own choice. Germans made their country too toxic for the rest of the world to tolerate.

Could be. Now, for every bomb dropped by Americans or Russians, how many were dropped by Assad? And all the artillery, and all the poison gas? What proportion of artillery shellfire was fired by Americans?

In the US we used to believe in fighting al Qaeda which is what Assad did. Now we are inviting the leader and founder of al Qaeda in Syria to the US

Both Americans and Russians bombed Syria. I think this may be the one war in the middle East were Russia has had a larger role in than the US. Invited by Assad though, so the original commenter ist Not wrong.

It gets better all the time.

What a time to be alive.

I really can't believe what has happened in the last 6 years or so.

There was I wondering if I'd be bored in retirement, but no -

Covid Clown World/mmRNA gene therapies.

Net Zero.

Ukraine.

WEF.

Unlimited Immigration.

Gates/Soros et al.

Many thanks to the perpetrators of the above - I'm so energised by it all.

I would like toi go back to a bit of boredom involving secure borders, safe and friendly communities, fair and equal rule of law, reasonable prosperity for all. Honesty.

Is that really too much to expect in my remaining lifetime or my children: I regret it may be too much. Perhaps none of them will be recovered.

It's quite a laundry list, isn't it. Try as I might to reconcile who exactly benefits from this chaos in the medium to long term, I just can't.

So, laugh if you like, I'm coming to the conclusion that the various leaders of various countries have been replaced by alien replicants. How else can you explain Germany, France, UK, Spain, Canada, Australia, the EU, etc?

The German people also rebuilt their country after 1945, and didn't flee en masse. To suggest that the Syrians have no choice but to leave is just the bigotry of low expectations, who could expect these poor brown people to actually rebuild their nation? Why take on the hard work of reviving your own nation when there's fiscally and morally bankrupt westerners to sponge off of?

I wonder if part of this is that men like Wadephul don't see the value of nationhood in general, and can't understand why someone might want to stay in their home even if that home has become a bombed out wreck? Men like that have no real affinity for particular places and would be quick to move if things weren't going their way.

"Merz said that … if these lines did not converge during the current legislative period, one would have to say that “This government has failed.”

Hmmm...pretty sure that's what always ends up happening when you choose socialism as an economic policy.

'Socialism has created the illusion of quenching people's thirst for justice:

Socialism has lulled their conscience into thinking that the steamroller which is about to flatten them is a blessing in disguise, a salvation."

- Alexander Solzhenitsyn

Socialism is resentment disguised as compassion enforced by tyranny disguised as tolerance.

Weepy liberal aristocrat in ME country: “people can hardly live in dignity here.”

Do these people ever occasionally recall the actual countries they're supposed to represent!?

The White Man's Burden never died it just supplanted Christianity to become the White (Wo)man's Emotional Burden.

Imagine how much better our lives would be if our elected representatives just did their jobs and stopped wanting to "heal the world". White saviors botch everything they touch because the things they know about don't interest them and they know nothing about the things they pledge their souls to. (Reality is hard, sentimental fantasies are easy—and popular.)

Wadephul should either move to Syria and devote his life and money to building the country or STFU and go away. We are ruled by an entire international class of Mrs. Jellybys.

Maybe, just maybe, shitholes around the world are like that because of the people who live there. There values, culture, beliefs and religions could be responsible.

Just think jhow long and how much effort it took to build the infrastructure, communities and procedures (laws, etc) which made our nations civilised prosperous places. It didn't happen because of the soil, the climate or natural resources of any kind.

I read a couple of years ago, during the scamdemic, that 450 000 Californians had already left. It has been years since I was in NM or AZ but even then, Californians were buying up real estate, and looking at the prices, they still are. I also know of large groups of Americans in certain areas of Mexico. Even here in small town GA, we have several handfuls of Californians who came to find a better place. They seem to all vote dem to my knowledge. and at least a couple are very dutifully needle worshipers.

Fager 132's avatar

Oh, we have 35 brainiacs here. Fifteen are month-old chicks because we had some attrition this summer. But my IR scope comes today so the coyotes are on notice.

I *much* prefer the birds to the cattle. Chickens aren't smart (although they're on an IQ spectrum) but they are *highly* food-motivated so they learn routines well and kind of solve problems, like getting to the barn cat food. After three days of being treated to mealworms the chicks now mob the door into their enclosure when they see me. If you make any kind of "call" when you offer treats they'll figure it out within an event or two and then come running any time they hear it. (We use "Chick-chick-chick!") They're easy-care livestock overall and I like watching them do their thing.

baker charlie's avatar

They are not that bad, one of the reasons they roost is to stay out of their poop. Food is put in special feeders that they can't put their butt over, same with water.

But they are the same as any livestock. The poop comes with the territory, but it never scared me off. I love my chickens and get great eggs.

One thing which has been empirically true. California, New York, Illinois, and some others have been severely in the red and receiving bail-outs from Congress for years. These bail-outs are waning or being cut, in large part due to loss of Democrat legislative control.

California always received the largest share of this cash and the other states are tired of that and now protest. Aunt Nancy is not there to push it through either. Newsom is stealing from Peter to pay Paul but states cannot legally declare bankruptcy. It’s going to get interesting.

It really is quite something watching most of the Western European governments circling the drain.

I, like you, cannot see how they (western administrations) are going to last. The Labour government in the UK is paralysed (maybe the best description is pathetically drunk on their own kool-aid). In France... oh dear we have really hit the buffers or something like it!

I have honestly never seen such ineptitude. The reality of the situation is staring them in the face but they still cannot understand that the policies they need to follow are diametrically opposed to the ones they are pursuing. As for the "refugees" We do not have the resources to be the dumping ground for all the flotsam the world has to offer.

Maybe one day they will wake up and... Sorry I am daydreaming again.

Danielle's avatar

I don’t believe that any of this is ineptitude. In Western countries it is all deliberate managed decline. The WEF/UN (and many other unelected globalists) have decided that they require EQUITY across the world and it’s easier to destroy successful countries than improve the third world. People are far easier to manipulate and manage when they are scrambling to feed their families and pay bills.

The next step will be wiping out countries’ debt and the introduction of the new Digital Currency.

LMS's avatar

It surely looks like your government is hanging by a thread. Johann Wadephul is correct, he isn't a wimp, he is eternally conniving to continue the importation of people who will never assimilate into western society, we have the same kind here in the USA & in every western nation. They will continue this nonsense in every western country until they are removed from government & somehow kept out of government permanently. He doesn't care what it does to your country nor to the coalition nor his supposed allies.

“and for no reason at all said there was no way Syrian refugees in Germany could be expected to return to such a place, because “people can hardly live in dignity here.”

THIS is a classic example of suicidal empathy.

He is in effect electing to persist in the chief acknowledged cause for the spiral of his own country’s demise as preferable to allowing Syrians to work out THEIR own problems for themselves in their own country (which is by far the more dignified position, totally contrary to his assumption).

Every time I read something abot Germany, it makes me hate Germany. But then I find myself in a conflict: this bad news makes me hate Germany, but since I hate Germany, it is actually good news and therefore I support Germany in its destruction, but then why am I mad about the destruction of Germany?

Nevertheless, last time I was speaking with a German I told him that I make Germany totally responsible for the destruction of Europe via muslim migration and that I wish that Germany disappers. His answer was: how can I support politics which wants to take away rights of womeny homosexuls etc. Clearly he couldn't be bothered about the destruction of Germany - I guess when halalists take over, women and homosexuals will prosper.

Trully sad that people who wish the annihilation of Germany care more about Germany than the German left. This totalitarian halalistic politics is destroying Germany economically and socially and is harming the entire Europe in the process with its four horsemen of the apocalypse: climastism, LGBT-sm, technocratism and anti-racism/facism.

Voices are getting more frequent that CDU should work on its "firewall" and maybe be more flexible and open or so (latest Kaube in the FAZ). The feasability of that aside and if the AfD would be well advised to be flexible itself I'm wondering if these voices (think of the slimy carrierist Tauber for example) are sincerely interested in solving some of the problems (trying to solve) or if we have come to the phase "Things are going to be really bad and it starts showing, let's get the AfD on board as long and as soon as we can, so that we are able to shift a good part of the blame on them and clean ourselves." No question that this would work, given the german electorate; no question that the CDU-crap is spineless enough to do it. A breakup of the coalition would mean difficult times for the AfD.

Expand full comment
eugyppius's avatar

I saw the Kaube piece too. Your theory is almost exactly mine: Voices in CDU are realising that the firewall is keeping AfD strong, a credible alternative; involving them in present politics will hurt their support like nothing else. Also for many things there are no good answers, esp. no good answers with CDU (i.e., energy costs without gas from Russia). So as you say they make AfD carry the bill for those too.

Charlotte's avatar

But can they (CDU) actually deliver change? Everything that transpired in the UK proved beyond a doubt that both Labour and Tories promised reduced immigration, getting rid of the EU Human Rights Court interference (the lightning Rod of Brexit)and lower taxes. But, like a crap soccer player, they simply cannot convert the ground play to a goal. Simply too many inner party conflicts and grifters- much like the US Congress. I genuinely think Reform and AfD exist because this coalition nonsense has genuinely led to a Frankenstein monster (as a another commenter so aptly described- sorry I forget whom!- great description!). These independent parties- if they finally get a super majority (let’s hope so) can convert the goal.

That’s also a possibility. On a broader point, we know that the universe is expanding exponentially, so why would you believe that we’re the only “living” organisms in that firmament?

This lot was prophesied by Spengler, who saw the West being now in its Winter phase, when Ourdemocracy finally turns into Caesarism: "A return to personal rule by strong leaders once democracy collapses into corruption and inefficacy."

The only way these little people can be stopped from destroying us is by someone saying "Enough already! You all have to go."

It happened in the USA, which is usually a 1,2 decades before Germany.

It will happen in Germany as well, and I hope it will be a benign figure like Trump. But I fear it wont.
