The Slow Demise of Western Civilization

As I look about, I reflect on the Australia I once knew. Growing up in the 60s, marrying in the 70s and retiring in mid-2000s, I can't help but feel that we Baby Boomers have lived in the best times Australia will ever know.

Earlier on, we had a White Australia Policy which meant that as a kid, I grew up with Australian born children, some of whose parents were immigrants from Italy, Germany and the United Kingdom. Asian and black people, apart from our own indigenous, were rarely seen, although in some parts of Australia Asians were more common because of their links to gold mining and pearling in which they had been occupied for two or three generations. There was a handful of Afghanis here and there, those who had helped build Australia's telegraph line from Adelaide to Darwin using camels to cart loads of food, water and equipment.

When I commenced work in a welding workshop on an isolated mine site, many of my workmates were immigrants from European countries. We shared common values and those who were born in non-English speaking countries had learned varying degrees of functional English. They fitted in well and we all got along together; I was fascinated by stories of their homelands, families and experiences. I helped my Danish friend learn English and he taught me a few words in Danish. I learned a little Greek, and Italian, now long forgotten.

Fortunately, good taste prevailed and between 1949 and 1973 the White Australia Policy was downgraded and eventually disappeared. Large numbers of Asian refugees and immigrants came to Australia after the Vietnam War and since then we've taken in people from most countries on the planet.

Even before World War II we imported Europeans, many of whom were victims of religious violence and these people have helped make Australia what it is today. The Barossa Valley in South Australia is a perfect example where Scottish and German immigrants turned barren land into one of Australia's most productive wine production regions in three or four generations. 

The push towards multiculturalism, based on the erroneous belief that all cultures are equal, became government policy in the 70s and we are stuck with it. We perhaps would have been better served by a multiethnicity policy and recognised that importing large numbers of moslems was not going to serve Australia's interests. But the horse has bolted and we've begun to pay the price, not learning from our European friends whose countries are suffering badly under too much immigration from moslem majority countries.

In this mix is the push by anarchists and leftist "progressives" who are doing everything they can to get rid of our Western democratic values and destroy our societies. Although they have benefitted from our safe, stable societies, they despise us and everything we stand for.

Why Australian politicians ceded sovereignty to the United Nations (UN) by adopting Refugee Charters, the Lima Declaration (1975), and other unhelpful agendas like Agenda 21 is anyone's guess. These should have all been taken to the Australian electorate first.

Well funded and well organised agencies of the UN and others have propagated a fake global warming crisis intended to distribute wealth from countries that work to countries that don't. Being too weak to disengage ourselves from the UN push, we've created large swathes of ugly wind turbines that cost more to produce and run than they will ever produce in baseload electricity. We've destroyed highly proficient coal-fired power plants and replaced them with systems that work only when the wind blows or the sun shines. And to make all this happen, we've increased the price of electricity to the highest in the world and used taxpayers' money to pay people to do it.

When it became clear that global warming wasn't happening at the alarming rate forecast, the conversation changed quickly to climate change. Although the climate is the average of weather and changes frequently as it has done for billions of years, the weak of intellect see each weekly change as proof of global warming. "The end of the world is nigh", they say as they down their coffee latte and scoff their muffins. The truth lies elsewhere and is evident in this graph:

Since 1979 the earth's lower atmosphere temperature has gone up and down and in June 2020 showed an increase of 0.43 degrees Celsius.

The climate is cyclical, not linear and a half-degree increase in temperature isn't going to kill anyone.

With the global warming hoax came a great opportunity for people to make wads of cash building and selling wind turbines, solar panels for industry and private use, all subsidised by ... yes, you guessed it, taxpaying Australians.

Closely associated with the climate alarmism is the relatively new activity of "deplatforming". If you have a different view to that of the climate alarmists, they don't want to hear it. Not only that, they don't want anyone else to hear it, so trying to find a venue to rent to run a seminar, discussion group etc, is now difficult for anyone with a different view.

If you do find one, the chances are that a large group of ugly anarchists, Leftists and parasites will try to block the entrance, assault you as you enter or leave, and even enter the hall and make a noise so you can't hear what they don't want you to hear.

"Eliminating courses on Western civilization ranks as one of the many radical changes in the American university over the last few decades. Symbolically, the shift began in January 1987, when Jesse Jackson led Stanford University students who, in a farcical demonstration with deep implications, shouted "Hey-hey, ho-ho, Western culture's got to go." HREF

Leftist platforms like Twitter, Instagram, Facebook will delete your entry or ban you if you dare publish something that doesn't agree with their propaganda. But publish something about killing whites and the chances are, it will remain viewable.

The second rate media entity, The Guardian refuses to publish any opinion on climate change that doesn't agree with its own. No room for reasoned debate here.

Freedom of speech, once the cornerstone of Western civilisation, is now becoming less free.

We've been through the so-called marriage equality struggle where a small number of homosexuals and academics told us we have to allow homosexuals to marry rather than simply having an agreement that treats each other equally. I didn't have a problem with that except for the fact that their unions are called marriages. Such is life, in a democracy, we have to accept what a majority wants.

Whether a majority wants primary school-aged children to be taught about masturbation and that gender isn't real, you can choose to be either male, female, or something else, is another matter. While sensible sex education is valuable and possibly appropriate to be taught in school along with information about relationships, the non-binary, anti-scientific topics pushed by Leftists isn't appropriate.

We also have pedophiles trying to get pedophilia accepted as normal. It possibly is for some people as there are many sexual deviations, however, the problem is that it involves children. Children too young to understand the consequences of their actions and at law not able to consent. No other sexual deviation is illegal in Australia except for beastiality - you can even practise necrophilia provided you don't kill the person involved to practice it. I'm not quite sure how they'd consent.

All signs of our changing times as we rush like lemmings towards the new utopian One World Global Order.

University students now have "safe spaces" where they can go if they feel threatened by - who knows what, perhaps the need to study. We all have "trigger warnings" lest we see, hear or read something we find offensive, distasteful, or simply what we don't want to see, hear or read. For Christs's sake; nothing seems to protect me from seeing Uber adverts with Magda Szubanski unless I'm lucky enough to be on a toilet break.

If you're black, you can't play a role or a voice-over of a white person and vice-versa. It's unpopular to be white because we're all supremacists. Halle Berry, that stunning part-black lady abandoned a film role-playing the part of a lesbian - that's a role for lesbians, not stunning heterosexual women.

Next week will we have men with moustaches playing men with moustaches; will 5'7" Tom Cruise still be playing much taller Jack Reacher? Will someone fat be allowed to play someone thin. It's all-important stuff in a world where thousands die from hunger every week.

One woman suggests that white people are a genetic defect and sub-human, forgetting that we've been responsible for building functional societies that have progressed in most fields of human endeavour. Profess to like something white and you'll be the recipient of hate mail and derision.

A black death brought us unhinged violence, destruction of property and shop owners livelihoods, looting, murder, rape and other ugly events that had nothing to do with any death but was simply used as a catalyst to misbehave.

Now a post mortem has found the death wasn't caused by police, but an underlying illness.

The cancel culture mob has returned with a vengeance destroying statues of historical figures that are no longer passe' with the minority of mindless morons they represent. Even graves of our young, brave soldiers who sacrificed their lives to allow us to live in freedom have been damaged, spray painted and otherwise vandalised.

School curricula are being changed to reflect dishonest views of history and science and universities are rolling out graduates indoctrinated into the ways of the Marxists from whom they have learned. All part of Agenda 21.

In the US there are now calls to defund the police and have no police altogether. Random assaults against white people out on their own are all too frequent and anti-semitism is rampant. Blacks kill more of their own than anybody else. If the Leftist morons run riot while they have police forces, imagine what they'll do without.

The West is going to the dogs in a handbasket. China, on the other hand, is heading towards being the leading power. Is it any wonder why?

Have I missed anything? I'm sure I have and if so, perhaps you could comment and tell me about it. I've run out of steam for today.

Just Another Stabbing in London?

Jack Merritt - BBC Photo

Stabbings seem to be a common occurrence in London, but most are apparently related to criminal behaviour, not terrorism.

Jack Merritt was murdered for a different reason; he was an infidel and according to the Koran, followed by over one billion of our planet's inhabitants, infidels need to be oppressed and pay tax to their superior moslem oppressors, or be killed.

Many moslems choose to bypass the oppression opportunity and kill people. This has been going on for 1400 years and will doubtless continue until people become heterodox in their beliefs or Islam is abolished.

Christianity had an ugly side, expressed mainly in the Old Testament, however, somehow it progressed and now stoning for adultery and other barbaric ideas have become obsolete in Christianity. 

Unfortunately, we humans have still not evolved to the stage where we could throw off the shackles of religion and see the universe and our world for what they truly are, beautiful places full of mystery and magic.

It's always sad to read about people being killed in senseless violence, especially when, like Mr Merritt, they had so much to contribute and so much more life to live. I sympathise with Mr Merritt's family and friends who must be devastated. There are other families involved who also need our sympathy.

Is it time to ban the Koran in Western countries and establish a collective of countries who will work to force modernisation of Islam, which is what many heterodox moslems are also calling for?

Encouraging violence is an offence in most jurisdictions of which I'm aware and the ugly Koran is full of it. Enough is enough.
