As the glaciers of the last ice age were receding, the Neolithic Age gave way to the beginning of what we call human civilization.\u00a0 And over the course of the last ten millennia human beings have slowly and painfully mastered various technologies and attempted to live in more and more complex social structures.\u00a0 But along the road from cave man to knowledge worker there have been several examples of a dominant local culture imploding for no apparent reason.\u00a0 When this happens the surrounding cultures usually take advantage of the vacuum created by the collapse and absorb the lands, peoples and resources that are up for grabs.\u00a0 We may be about to experience just such an implosion.<\/p>\n
Our society; western civilization, the first world, the global community, whatever you want to call it; has become delusional.\u00a0 And this has been a top-down process.\u00a0 The elites who inform the academic world, specifically the Ivy League colleges and fill the ranks of the top corporations and the federal bureaucracy have formulated a moral order that has given us the George Floyd riots, pediatric transgender medical malpractice, unrestricted third world immigration into the first world countries and the rest of the woke ideology that we are presently engulfed in.<\/p>\n
But even though this was started by the elites it has now percolated through the entirety of the younger half of the population.\u00a0 And the poison of this philosophy has done its job.\u00a0 The culture at large believes in things that make no sense and if acted upon will undo our civilization.\u00a0 This is what a culture committing suicide looks like.\u00a0 Adopting the self-hatred that the woke ideology prescribes for Americans guarantees that our society will cease to exist as it formerly was.\u00a0 We are already seeing the fruits of the DEI approach to corporations.\u00a0 Boeing\u2019s airliners and space ships are falling apart.\u00a0 Airline pilots are no longer selected and judged base on their ability to fly planes but on their skin color and sex habits.\u00a0 The same is happening with surgeons and judges.\u00a0 And what we will find is that airplanes and heart surgery can no longer exist in a world where pilots and heart surgeons are unqualified.\u00a0 After four or five airliners crash who is going to fly?\u00a0 Who is going to get a coronary bypass surgery when the survival rate is 5%?<\/p>\n
What I don\u2019t know the answer to yet is how does this play out?\u00a0 I am starting to see some evidence that in some jurisdictions people are rejecting the DEI model and all of its effects.\u00a0 Several states have already written laws banning things like transgender surgery and treatments for minors.\u00a0 Some colleges have pulled back from the abandonment of standards like SAT exams for admission and other means of selecting for qualified individuals.<\/p>\n
Maybe we will see a rejection of all the dangerous and dysfunctional ideas that have flooded our world with unqualified individuals running the mechanisms of modern life.\u00a0 Maybe we will pull back from the abyss and regain some semblance of sanity in how we regulate our world.\u00a0 We should have some clues to this soon.\u00a0 One of the signs I would be looking for in a population retreating from the abyss would be rejecting the woke leadership.\u00a0 And rejecting Joe Biden would be the clearest sign of that.\u00a0 Biden has embraced all of the woke agenda and this has affected most of the American people catastrophically.\u00a0 If the electorate embraces Biden, then I\u2019ll assume that societal collapse is what is baked into the cake at this point.\u00a0 Well, why should we be any luckier than the Hittites and the Romans?\u00a0 Anyway, if Biden is the winner stock up on canned food, bottled water and bullets.\u00a0 You\u2019ll probably need them.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
