Correct, Europe as we now/knew it is gone. The Tory party in the U.K. which held the referendum on Brexit won't even properly respect it. The Tories have screwed up what should have been a lock with voters and I expect the Labour Party to be re-elected and it's leading in the polls. It's going to be the 70s all over again there.

What happened to the elite in the French Revolution? In what way will history repeat? How many of us will live to see it?

I cannot stand the term far right. Whenever I see it in an article, I know the writer is from the other side of the aisle. It's a total exaggeration and it's used as a slur.

Right-of-centre parties in Europe are rising again because voters are realizing, especially after COVID, that their leaders do not represent them. (This is a familiar theme for me.)

The EU was only supposed to be about trade at its inception in the 70s. It's now a globalist/socialist enterprise that hates its voters.

In the Western world, it's a simple explanation: We are committing suicide from within.

I do have hope for Eastern Europe, though. Poland and Hungary are leading the way.

I hope Spanish voters prevail on Sunday.

I don't know what difference these so-called "far right" governments in Europe will make at this point. The EU/globalism are entrenched and their media stiffle any dissent. It's difficult to have common sense conversations that concern voters because their establishement/media do not allow it.

I am also heartened that PM Mark Rutte of the Netherlands had to step down and I pray that Dutch farmers and their cows (there is a mass cull/kill planned to reduce "climate change.") are left alone to continue God's work.

Europe is a mess and it's self-inflicted.

Yes, I do. I was 12 years old. In my neck of the woods, lib-Manhattan-Bronx, we were told he was the Second Coming of Attila the Hun. We believe this. Lesson learned.

I just did a refresh of my one election in the Great State of Minnesota. The DFL will vote for a manure spreader before a vote for a conservative any time and that was way back in 1964. IMO Johnson slid in on the blood and gore of Kennedy's casket.

Robust evidence that both parties work together to censor/nullify those who want to return to honest representation. RFK and Trump are a world apart in their priorities but both hold values that threaten the main stream.

True LuAnn, yet this is Europe. They built their magnificent cathedrals to the glory of God, and also invented La Guillotine to remind the feckless elites that ultimately it is the people who hold the power of life and death.

How about this:

"When the middle class gets fed up and finally fights back, the media acts surprised." That is because the middle class doesn't like to cause problems, but no more. It is now very clear that the pure evil of the left is there for all to see. I am doing my part to fluster the left (I make my own meals and coffee just for starters), but I read a story this morning that even made me wince. It seems two (Obviously children of liberals) who paid $1865.00 each for front row tickets to a Taylor Swift concert. It turned out they were "victims" of a scam. GOOD!! I said "Anyone stupid enough to pay that kind of money deserves EXACTLY what happens to them." No sense in commenting on how many stupid people paid even more than that to listen to obama say how he WILL destroy these very same people.

When people pay money like that, it is obvious they have never worked a day in their lives.

Expand full comment

I think the middle class just wants to be left alone to get on with life, and the left wants affirmation of their life. So they agitate until they get a response, then are surprised and hurt because they get smacked down for stupid sh*t.

I hope Europe can get through it without having their beloved statues destroyed. The cathedrals and spires, and stained glass windows were also dedicated to the glory of God. I hope I can say I was wrong about the EU, that it was NOT the 10-headed beast of the Revelation.

We'll see, but I do expect cathedrals to eventually become mosques. Look at the Hagia Sophia in Instanbul.

The farmers won because that is one of the only jobs people can do to earn money in The Netherlands other than getting stoned day in and day out. The drug trade isn't a job that needs a lot of training--just look at San Francisco.

I wonder if most good people would be able to say no to the enemy at your front door if saying yes would presumably save your family, your neighbors and/or your way of life. As I see it if we don’t man up, stand up and speak up the scenario of kgb like overlords will come true. A few countries here a few countries there: is it enough? Where are the consequences for evildoers?

I watched the absolutely insane whistleblower hearing and I am appalled at the absurdity of the Dems. I see who the people are that will be sending our weaponized agencies to flush out the smallest guppie in the ocean of MAGA people. I refrain from adding Republican to the MAGA moniker because I do not see a shred of intelligence in their daily work.

If a child steals a piece of candy what consequences he would face by righteous parents. I guess making parents domestic terrorists relieves our overlords of forcing consequences in accordance with morality and natural law.

We’ve screwed the pooch long enough. I’m finally glad I’m old. I don’t like what we’ve become and I don’t see it ending well.

Hey! Have a great day!!

I understand the emotional pull of defeatism but it is a type of surrender to a devious psyop that wants you to do exactly that. We can absolutely be victorious, but cynicism and despair are rarely a path to victory.

Expand full comment

It is a psyop designed to conquer us without the use of military means, and to then keep us passive under the new masters. By controlling the media, it tries to make us feel isolated, helpless, and intimidated. But it is a flat-out lie. There is such an awakening going on with such a wide swath of the population, that the Left is desperate to hide that, because it would encourage us and we would realize how “do-able” it is to destroy this evil.

This is very much a mental / psychological / spiritual war as much as it is an information war. So our consistent mental clarity is essential and very powerful. As each of us individually comes out from under the “mesmerism”, we help to break the spell of that mesmerism of the broader population. And our fellow Americans, left and right, are still in their essence good people who are capable of an intelligent response to this aggressively-pushed evil. Many of them are just under a hypnotic influence and still are only getting information from the corrupt left media. We can help them come out from under this mental mesmerism, but not if we ourselves are surrendering to defeatism. Happy fighting!

Expand full comment

In essence, when we accept an emotion of defeatism, WE add OUR psychological weight to the oppressive mesmerism they are trying to exercise over the population, and thus in a way INCREASE the burden of a mesmeric sense of consciousness on the rest of the population. We need to do the opposite and BREAK it, not add to it.

Expand full comment

Sorry!!—this is my last comment on this—but as this train of thought unfolds—in essence the psyop seeks to create a mental atmosphere among a population; and we can tangibly feel and be influenced by this mental atmosphere of thought. But that also means we can play a role in reversing and correcting this mental atmosphere.

Mass Formation Psychosis. The cure is for even a minority of folks to speak the truth out loud. God help me to have the courage to do so at every opportunity!

If you can find the video of Tucker Carlson talking to Mattias Desmet, it is an absolutely fascinating interview. It gave me a “big picture” view of where we find ourselves today in this clown world, how we got here, and what must happen to keep civilization from going into total darkness. It ultimately points to the spiritual realm.

Since 1948 Europe has never paid its assessments to belong to NATO and even now is not funding the Ukrainian war, it is the U.S. The countries are unable to manage their own nations, let alone a European Union which is nothing more than an overblown bureaucracy sitting in Brussels dictating socialist ideology..

Agreed. And if they don't kill you, they conduct show trials, as the Nazis and communists have done everywhere and which is going on right now in blue cities/states. The accused are already convicted and sentenced: what we are seeing are public displays of power and harm that they can inflict on any who resist, or even disagree.

Constantini seems to be one of the few Europeans to understand and state the problem. The media in Europe just as in the US ALWAYS describe center/right politicians and movements as "far right". I listen daily to the French TV news so I know this is how they describe not only French politicians on the right but all the others in Europe.

On another note it is hot in Europe now. Surprise, it is mid Summer. But the French news are salivating over global warming like a teen with a wet dream. Continuing to ask for government action. Ha Ha Ha.

One last note they never note that our Prez/VP are like dead men walking. Again, surprise!

Yep, we need a mini ice age because of the idiots. They are deliberately courting what a massive volcano does and well, we have had ice ages due to volcanic action. That is ok, Purdue... a highly rated engineering school put out a paper recently that indicated we just needed to white wash everything.
