Today’s background painting is called Belshazzar’s Feast (John Martin, 1821), depicting a scene after Babylon destroyed the First Temple in what is now Israel. A commenter noted that their 3-year-old toddler appeared to behave as a drunk adult man. The comparison got me to study the cognitive side effects of the most popular recreational drugs in use throughout recent history, say, since the 1920s. And indeed, each popular substance, varying from decade to decade, from alcohol to fentanyl and everything in between, if used regularly, has the specific effect of experiencing impaired memory, diminished cognition, and reduced executive function or decision-making ability. Recreational drugs are likely so popular because they help return people to a childlike state, presumably, to escape the dread of adult responsibilities. A Dependent People I’m not a fan of drug abuse, but now I understand better why so many conservative movements traditionally always argue against drug use and even against alcohol. Though I can relate to people seeking temporary relief from stress, for example, it becomes a problem when addictions trap people in a permanent childlike state when the cognitive damage becomes lasting or even permanent. Even marijuana, for example, especially when regular use starts in one’s teenage years, leads to a permanent cognitive slowdown in adulthood. Is this, now, the so-called “opening of one’s mind” that liberals advertise? It appears, to me, more like a closing of one’s mind. There’s nothing revolutionary about not being able to make decisions. I can also see why liberal movements traditionally have always argued for the use of legally permitted drugs. Profit motives may play a role, as well, since many states around the world, or at least their elites, by law tend to control the production of alcohol or other recreational substances, such as Sweden’s Systembolaget, a government-owned chain of liquor stores. Under the Romanov family, the Czar family, the Russian state controlled the production of vodka, offering a considerable stream of income. The other reason may be that people, devolved into a reduced state of cognition, become more governable. A person regularly under the influence of recreational substances that diminish one’s memory function, executive function, and decision-making ability, can no longer be expected to govern himself. See, a modern state needs a dependent people, and dependent people need a state to govern them. It’s a two-way process. There are people who prefer to shun adulthood and relinquish their responsibilities to a more powerful actor, such as Father Government or Mommy Media. The supply of such people is matched by the needs of a state for precisely the irresponsible people who need constant supervision. It’s a business model. It’s much easier to control citizens if they would exist permanently on a lower level of mental capacity than to have to deal with outspoken adults who demand to be treated equally and seriously by the State! Taken to the extreme, the difference between independent humans and algorithmic slaves is that between lions roaming the plains and termites following the queen’s programming. Aldous Huxley warned of it in his novel Brave New World, but I suspect that our globalist overclass sees it as desirable to have people biologically conditioned by functional caste. That functionality implies a people’s erasure. It means making people into a blank slate so that the state can reprogram them as needed. Biological features of language, race, culture, sex, or nation must all be effaced to make us as visually identical as termites or ants. This is what is meant by equality. It’s the erasure of your personality, your race, and of your national culture in order to make newborns interchangeable and ready for their conditioning. Whether raised as drone manager or worker drone, the future salary will be identically 0, for you will be a slave regardless of rank or fervor. If so-c

In this livestreamed discussion, I went over several concepts relating to White men as the world’s scapegoats. And that—though we cannot change the role—we can stop playing it. By focusing on what we still can do for ourselves, we win status and competence on our own terms. That is something society cannot prevent us from doing. So, we escape the scapegoat role by refusing to argue for better treatment. Instead, we start treating ourselves right.
It turns out that people’s sense of race and language develops simultaneously. Meaning, a White American child would expect other White children to speak their language. But if they meet a brown child who speak proper American English, they will prefer the brown child to another White child who can’t speak English well. Elites, therefore, united behind their shared accents and dialects, usually the language of the power elite. However, rural people cannot unite behind a single language, since they speak wildly different dialects. And so, rural resisters must unite themselves behind race and religion.
In short, Epstein was working for the Rothschilds. He was a basic occultist working for Satanists. Their goal is to use technology to erase human religiousness. The Bill Gates jibby-jab may have been an attempt to chemically erase religiosity in some people. Elites hate Christianity, especially the patriarchal branch, because it guarantees people a free will. And elites rather see people as happy servants, bred to be slaves.
Nearly every Western nation is suffering an aging population, mass immigration, political corruption, an affordable housing crisis, and an anti-White media. Diversity is called a strength, or has it really been the result of our weakness in other domains? The Western world initially believed it could relegate Chinese industry into a position of eternal supplier to our needs. Then it appeared that China might win top dog position in the economic hierarchy of national rankings. In response, Western elites decided that we needed to get India to side with the West, at all cost. But how could we convince the massive population of India to fight with us against China? This, our ruling classes believed, could be achieved through a massive transfer wealth, namely to buy loyalty. India today is the number one recipient of remittances coming out of the USA. Remember Christmas 2024 when even Elon Musk started calling white people retarded if they didn’t like the h1b visa scam that was bringing in hundreds of thousands if not millions of Indians into the USA? His concern must have been that China wasn’t going to need any more Teslas and that Tesla was going to need the Indian market to both sell Tesla cars to and to have them produced there more cheaply. Perhaps the idea was to get to China and India to compete on price for Western consumer demands. So we learned that we can never trust our billionaire overclass’ interests because their interests are global and ours are local and national. The average person living in the West does not live globally but lives nationally at best, and how many people do you know who never even leave their local neighborhood because they work and study and go out in the same nearby streets? The needs of globalism have become a threat to our national survival. We are no longer investing in rearing children of our own because our foreign policy priorities are that we first house Indian or Somali immigrants for geopolitical reasons. A part of Somalia called Somaliland, for example, is a piece of real estate necessary for the defense of international trade routes along the Red Sea and the Gulf of Aden. And so it seems that the Somali daycare scam in the state of Minnesota under the supervision of former vice presidential candidate Tim waltz is most definitely a dark money scheme to funnel U.S. taxpayer funds to illicit foreign organizations. Chinese strategists however foresee a totally different outcome. They believe that China will take the number one position as the world’s next only superpower. They believe that the U.S. and India will ultimately be competing against each other for second and third place positions. If this indeed were the outcome, then the USA will no longer be able to fund the defense of Israel, in which case that piece of real estate will fall into the hands of Arabs backed by China. No, I don’t support Israel or its regime. And no, I also don’t support China taking over the territory. But if China did take over the Middle East, it would then rule all international trade. And then, in such a scenario, what is to become of Europe? Already the USA seems incapable of defending Europe under its NATO pact. Of course Europe shouldn’t have to rely on defenses paid for by the USA. Europe should rather become independent. Europe, today, is importing over 60% of its energy needs from outside of the EU bloc. How can Europe ever be independent? For starters, we could reduce our surplus population. What I personally foresee is that the economic wealth of the West is going to wither away, that the Western military presence around the world will have to be largely withdrawn, and that we will once again realize that our most precious assets are our own people living on their own land. But there is a serious risk of subjugation by foreign enemies. Our land will require heavy defenses in the near future, since Europe is surrounded by its Islamic enemies and even the Russian leaders are dreaming of annexing
Thanks to TikTok’s Daniel Clark (who gets banned often), Johannes (English), and Seth. Note that Seth isn’t a member of the Vryburger Beweging, but added his comments about New Jersey and the situation in the USA. We spoke at length about the situation in South Africa, and about how to organize successfully against the “Woke Rainbow” governments. A great insight was delivered by South African Johannes, namely that “normie” White people tend to arrive at the same conclusions once they’ve had the same experiences.
