"Few people object to the presence of gays in their lives, but the demand upon us to celebrate them is unnatural and ridiculous. "
I object to the presence of gays "in my life" as well as in society at large. I'm not even really sure what the former means since I would never voluntarily associate with one.
The tactics described in this article accurately outline the lefty liberal mindset and the mind games employed by modern leftists. This is a dead-on psychological profile and should be mandatory reading for young students about to enter higher education because it outlines what they will be dealing with.
Fascinating that this article was published 3 days before the assassination of Charlie Kirk. When I saw the opening meme I imagined it had been written afterwards. The left was going to lose the culture war anyways, it was only a matter of time. They couldn't win because their ideas are so obviously wrong and contradictory that they can't stand the modern exchange of information in the long-term, and because the results of their policies are sooner or later devastating for everybody (including themselves). So, it was only a question of time until most people notice them and demand a correction. My worry is how much of the damage can be repaired once the bad policies are removed. All bad social developments can be corrected at some point, history is full of such examples. The problem is the huge demographic change that is happening and has already happened. I don't see any viable way to revert that huge problem. We will pay a tremendous price in the long-term for the demographic change that was/is being perpetrated against the indigenous people. So, the big task for anyone (who isn't in the 1% (including lefties)) is now to diminish and stop immigration as much and as soon as possible.
Also, I might add that there is a sense of urgency to this. The reason why is because of mass migration. If the demographics permanently tip over into Third Worlder majority, then there’s likely no coming back from that, no reclaiming of anything. It’ll be Brazil (or maybe even South Africa) forever, unless there is a violent Reconquista.
I am wondering what MW thinks about the recent murders of the Ukrainian girl and Charlie Kirk; specifically whether they will have an accelerating effect on the downfall of the Left. I am not as enthusiastic about this as MW is. It is going to take a long time to reclaim the Universities. We also need to take back the entertainment industry -- the main source of Leftist propaganda that has brainwashed so many young people. Once we do that, I think we can declare victory. This is all assuming Western Civilization doesn't collapse. Even Homer Simpson (fictional cartoon Boomer) seems more capable of running the local nuclear power plant than your average Zoomer university graduate.
That the rump left can ignore traditional, labour, northern constituencies overturning huge labour majorities and simply stating the voters are all duped far right 'gammons'...says it all.
Great post. I’d also add the Left’s cult-like belief in Big Pharma and vaccines which have caused so much harm it’s baffling that people still support either.
The issue that still exists is power, authority, violence. The Left still has control of institutions and therefore institutional violence. So while they may not have effective arguments, they still have the ability to use violence on the population, and especially their political enemies. That has to be solved for.
I find a lot of what you write resonates, but I can't quite get with the dissing of 'the Left' and the consequent 'the Right is Team Good' stance. Everyone is being played against one another at the moment and all those who feel tribal at the moment are somehow going along with this. Many, many 'Leftists' have been utterly duped by identity politics and their desire to be seen as good people, defined largely by their not being 'Rightists', rules them. And many, many 'Rightists' are falling into the trap of allowing the 'leftist' discourse to enrage them, especially as it appears to be the dominant force in Western politics and society at the moment. But it's all coming from globalist powers way above our heads, powers who would traditionally have been seen as right wing in the past. All they are doing is playing those who identify as left and those who identify as right against one another, because these identities are made up and given to us for that purpose. We need to get out of the tribal mindset and see with clarity what is really happening and where we are playing along in someone else's game. It may even be kinda fun - dissing those we see as being stoopid - but it's not going to lead to any healthy outcomes.
While I accept a degree of manipulation from the powerful, we still have to address the things the modern left is actually advocating, whatever their origins. Open borders, discriminatory quotas, radical feminism that is harming women, targeting children for indoctrination on sexual mores, the destruction of affordable energy for normal people, and on and on. These are real and happening. They are not being driven by centre-right or right wing types.
No doubt the right has its crackpots, but the right itself tends to police them. We do not see this on the left.
So I agree, divide and conquer to an extent. But the left are not just people repeating some slogans to appear nice. They are dismantling the safety and reliability of our nations. If they continue our homes will be uninhabitable. That is worthy of condemnation because they have to be stopped.
I would contest how valuable and healthy 'our nations' were in the first place. Were they not just set up by those powers as a means of controlling and enslaving those not a part of their elite groups, both men and women? We were traditionally nomadic. 'Borders' may give us a feeling of security, but they aren't natural, and they weren't set up by the likes of you and me. Plus the inherent lack of fairness regarding who gets to cross which border at which price is not at all healthy, and is anyway, as we currently see, dictated by those very same powers for their own purposes, not to protect us!
They were definitely defended by the likes of you and me. You are intellectualizing a natural process all human groups engage in. A key problem I see emanating from the left and commented on by the author of this piece. Borders are not only natural but essential for safety and the flourishing of civilization. If you are feeling nomadic go ahead and leave. But most object to incompatible people being brought into formerly safe countries.
My nation was perfectly valuable and healthy before people had clever ideas about borderless worlds that don't work.
Traditional nomadic lifestyles are quite far back in our history, with a few notable exceptions.
You seem to think a country is just a geographical territory, which is certainly the view of globalists. But this is false. A country is a people. That's why Australia looks like Britain.
Well, Australia looked very different from Britain, people-wise until very recently when its naturally open borders let us lot in. So is it a case of closed borders for me but not for thee?
Think you will find that this happens on all sides of political discourse. In fact using woke or wokeism is a cheap hit and used by the right when they have no argument.
Thank you for sharing - I respect you sharing your opinion.
If I look at each of your points I am ok with gay marriage, for trans everyone is entitled to their beliefs but I agree that in some occasions it has gone to far - thinking of all the game shows that are on tv etc. and also with the toilet situation.
Immigration has been driven by the amount of conflict in the world. Instead of solving at source we are making people travel across many countries- many do it because they have no choice but I agree we need to do something with people smugglers.
Ok with diversity though sometimes it can get too much. I respect their beliefs but people’s should also accept mine.
Feminism was needed to balance up the rights between men and women. Unfortunately us men are not great at communicating which has caused this shift back. There needs to be respect and I am worried where this shift, especially in the USA is going to go. I can see it happening in the UK.
Not seen any instances of man hating - I can only comment on my experience
My views are shaped by my personality and are not going to change much but I do appreciate that people have different opinions and that’s what make us human.
I mean the stuff that the progressive left have been doing since 2010: gay marriage, trans rights, mass immigration and diversity, and crazed feminism and man-hating.
Too many times their arguments centre around the woke culture without defining what they are referring to. The term woke to me means accepting that we are all different and that we need to respect that. It appears they want to use woke to divide and remove a lot of colour in this world.
Might be simple but if we don’t accept differences then what hope to we have.
I thought I had moved away from the toxic environment called X/Instagram, and found this sanctuary (this word has been appropriated by the left as well) called Substack.
But no.
Just after my innocuous comment about the Epstein files, a torrent of hateful and vile comments appear. Personal attacks. Violent threats and name calling.
These people are ready to be triggered by anything.
But instead of turning their anger into action against those who are responsible for their woes (the politicians) they instead turn their rage into their neighbor, who they hope is weaker than them and can't defend themselves.
It's like the psychological fact of the Abused becoming the Abuser.
Unfortunately, you're absolutely correct. Only God (or the total collapse of Western Civilization) may save us now.

Well, you can’t really stop them from being in your life, can you? I mean, you have to accept their existence.
What? You can just kill them.

Are they really asking "where did it all go wrong?" Or planning to maintain their dominance through naked repression and (more) deadly violence?
You're quickly becoming my favorite writer on Substack.
Love the closing paragraph.
Also, I might add that there is a sense of urgency to this. The reason why is because of mass migration. If the demographics permanently tip over into Third Worlder majority, then there’s likely no coming back from that, no reclaiming of anything.

This is golden Colin "Society might be bending to her ideology but (she could already feel) human nature wasn’t." Spot on.

Oh, I have arguments. And don't try the bullshit about not knowing what we mean by "woke".
What do you mean by woke - when I see woke, left wing and covid being thrown about with gay abandon I am interested.
I mean the stuff that the progressive left have been doing since 2010: gay marriage, trans rights, mass immigration and diversity, and crazed feminism and man-hating.

Only god can save us from hell.
It's basic human cowardice.
Folks are angry, frustrated and revolted.
But instead of turning their anger into action against those who are responsible for their woes (the politicians) they instead turn their rage into their neighbor, who they hope is weaker than them and can't defend themselves.
It's like the psychological fact of the Abused becoming the Abuser.

This post is legendary. A perfect coda for a century of insanity and complacency.
