I have to speak out about this. Kunstler's latest blog post - 'History Lesson', is no lesson at all. It is difficult to promote or rescue a hypothesis when the very first statement of that explanation is an obvious falsehood. Kunstler says "Let me take you back to the mid-20th century. America had just fought... Continue Reading →
Gradualism’ vs ‘Catastrophism’ – A Layman’s Perspective – Part 2 of at least 2
This is a work in progress. In fact at an early stage of progress. I have only posted it in this condition to act as a driver to the personal impetus I must find in order to make any success of the project. I will update this post as I go, and when complete or... Continue Reading →
Something to Ponder
I've said recently that I find nothing much of importance in current events. The issues that matter are not generally up for discussion. Trivial things like pandemics, elections and trade, occupy the global mind and of course the perennial East/West war which thankfully has so far been restricted to words and thoughtless, bad-tempered, perhaps even...

Time to Stand Tall Europe – Kick the US Pigs in the Nuts
Quick post. "Germany SITREP: Former German Chancellor Says U.S.- EU Alliance Could Now End" - Eric Zuesse for The Saker Blog This latest news from Europe is music to my ears. Could it happen? If those running the EU have any common sense or self-respect, it will. But that is not a given. The people... Continue Reading →
‘Gradualism’ vs ‘Catastrophism’ – A Layman’s Perspective – Part 1 of at least 1
While I am waiting for something truly catastrophic to happen, and having declared (and by doing so have backed myself into a corner - a corner which fortunately has several escape doors which I may utilise) that nothing else is currently worth pursuing as a subject for me to talk about, I have turned my...

Mid-year Point
Where I am it has just passed midnight on the June 30, July 1 boundary and, while I didn't catch it exactly, here are the current Worldometers statistics for global population. https://www.worldometers.info Net population growth in the last six months (first 6 of 2020), is a little over 40.5 million. I guess we can knock... Continue Reading →
Fossicking in the Rubble of the West
"Australia wages espionage offensive against China: source" - Global Times I don't have words to express my loathing of what Western culture has become, and perhaps always was, in that it apparently believes that everyone else is as deplorable, untrustworthy and morally depleted as they are. Australia, my home country, is of course no exception...

Uncle Sam and Auntie Semitic
One of the most misunderstood words in the English language - mostly due to ignorance and a paucity of education on the part of those who tend to use the term - is 'antisemitism' or 'antisemitic' (frequently misspelled by the same ignoramuses as 'antisemetic'). Let's try to dispel some of that misunderstanding, with an image... Continue Reading →
Is The Disintegration of Western Society Going Fast Enough for You?
Have the events taking place so far in this pivotal year of 2020 left you so shell-shocked, numb and confused that you can't even think back to how things were at the end of 2019, before COVID-19 placed a few more nails in the coffin lid of WESTSOC? I just made up that WESTSOC acronym... Continue Reading →
