The essential precursor to European freedom is to stop relying on US military and economic aid.
I stand in solidarity with Paul Miller (Gypsy Crusader) who was unfairly sentenced today.

What kind of person sees this and thinks “Oh now I’ll definitely get the vaccine”
I always laugh when the Koch family are held up as right wing bogeymen.

Conservative Koch network disavows critical race theory bans
DES MOINES, Iowa (AP) — As conservative political groups mobilize to ban in schools what they call critical race theory, one prominent backer of Republican causes and candidates is notably absent.
I've noticed quite a few hit pieces on crypto over the last year by the MSM due to it being commonly used to fund right wing online content. In a world where you can get arbitrarily banned from banking, it's definitely nice to have these cryptocurrencies.

Results of a re-wilding project in Scotland.
I've visited Scotland and can say that while it has beautiful forested areas, most of the country is quite desolate due to thousands of years of deforestation.
As this image shows, it only takes 20 years to bring the countryside back to life.

It's about 6 months since I first refused to get vaccinated and I'm still here, all is well, fine and dandy. Given that we're being told the vaccines only work for 6 months anyway I can't see a single advantage in my having been vaccinated 6 months ago except that I would have now had a load of that spike crap in my body.
The status of what constitutes ''fully vaccinated'' is about to include having had a booster within 6 months, so even the people who got vaccinated 6 months ago are now dropping back into the same lowly category as me.
The situation is completely absurd, if it continues, this time next year the people who were offered their first vaccine the same time as me will be in line for their sixth(!) injection.
In other words I could decide next year to finally get vaccinated (I won't) and be just as vaccinated as people who've had 6 vaccines injected into them and spent 18 months on the merry-go-round.

I’ve noticed that some right wingers have this notion that America became degenerate because it de-industrialized and became a service economy.
While there may be some truth to that, the country was morally degenerating long before our industry moved overseas. Industrial employment in the US was still rising until the 70s; divorce and birth control use, meanwhile, exploded in the 60s.
There’s not much about industry that inherently breeds virtue. If anything, Western society’s shift from agrarian economies to industrial ones made people more materialistic and less morally idealistic.

Whenever I explore why China is rising and America is falling there are sections of people who completely miss the point and think I want China to dominate the world and for America to die. (I would like America *as we currently know it* to die)
The actual point is to contrast Western liberalism to Chinese authoritarianism and analyze why that authoritarianism is winning. I don’t want to be ruled by China anymore than anyone else - I want the West to drop all of the nonsense it’s been doing for the last 80 years.
