Where's Mr. Graywolf when you need him? Last I heard he was getting married. Life must've got in the way of wiggle watching 😉 Or something that "sounds like" life... |

It was sent to me by another old Missouri rebel. I have desolate visions of Brandon trying figure out which way is north. And meanwhile, the Western Climate Mafia will steal whatever else they can before they buy a hidey hole somewhere. They should be disproven, tracked down, and put on display. |

This comment below the article was spot on. "You've mentioned this before, that American culture is not rooted in reality but instead wrapped up in fantastical thinking if not outright myth. For example, in your first book you dissected the US view of WWII, with its America-focus and near-ignorance of what happened on the German Eastern Front. Indeed, few Americans today can even begin to outline the scale or scope of that critical, definitive part of the war. To many Americans, the war began on June 1944 in France, with D-Day (if they even know that much, which they saw in a movie or such).
.
Of course, obviously there is much that is "real" in America. It's a big country with 350 million people, built out over half a continent. There's plenty going on, yes... You don't build a country like USA by sitting back, fantasizing and smoking pot. But then again America today is a product of 200 years of previous development. Many predecessors dug many a well, a mine, built a mill or dam, plowed a farm, built cities... Which all have now been hijacked by the current generation that includes armies of deluded, radicalized fools.
.
It's stating the obvious to say that US culture has degraded. All led by the despicable jackals of media and Hollywood (and similar), and fast-declining academe (esp humanities and "social" side), and failing/failed "organized" religion, and gross politics and so on. Which brings us to this alleged "climate change" discussion.
.
It's not that Americans cannot do geophysics or space satellites, etc. Not that they can't or won't go north to measure ice. Etcetera... Of course they can, and they do. (Heck, I've worked up north at the top of Alaska.) But in a profound manner, the leadership of the country -- the ones who set the rudder, so to speak; but really the ones who spend the money on so-called "research" -- have simply taken their own track on the railway to ignorance and eventually disaster. And the strange, bizarre thing is that it's not that they worship at some altar of ignorance, although it's easy to think exactly that based on evidence. It's more like there's a self-destructive streak within the upper classes (financial, political, academic, religious, etc.), and they wish to take steps and dismantle the entire national edifice.
.
This US/Western fixation on "the climate" is not just about the climate. It's a projection of the deep hatred that American elite have for their own country, its history, its culture. It's why most of the country is called "flyover country," or Hillary referred to "deplorables" and "irredeemable" people. This climate change thing is just another prop in the war of a corrupt leadership against its own people."

Yes. Many Americans are very poorly educated in geography and history. The Russians absolutely were responsible for crushing the German war machine, although it did take 4 long brutal years. Yes, we provided equipment through Murmansk, but it was Russians that did much of the dying. That is not to discount the N African and Italian campaigns. But without the Russian front, D-Day may never have succeeded. Read "The Forgotten Soldier" sometime ... written by a half-French half-German teenager who was drafted into the Wehrmacht in 1942 and spent the last 2 years of the War with the elite Gross Deutchland Motorized Division. I read it in high school and years later was informed by a German I met in the Carribbean that it was required reading in German public schools. History was my passion in my teens.  en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Panzergrenadier_Division_Gro%C3%9FdeutschlandThe Greatest Generation is gone and the increasingly not-so-great leadership of the following generations has not been so good. We have been Brandonized. |

I was ridiculed at a party one time when I stated that a 19th century education was far superior to our current education system. |

My view is that the OWM (old white male) group are to be excluded from the structured world.
Reminds me of what happened to the Ashkanzi Jews in eastern Europe some three hundred years ago. Were forced to work in finance and non craft industry they did very well, had some issues along the way, but very successful the process lift their IQ one STD deviation and the consequence is they dominated the Noble prize awards 100X.
They need to be careful what they wish for.

They need to be careful what they wish for. This is a very interesting recent study looking at Western male Jewish YDNA haplogroup associations. Concentrations in the R1b>P312 haplogroup. R1b is associated with the Indo-European steppe peoples of the Pontic Steppe that moved into Western Europe in stages starting some 5000 years ago. They also moved southward into Greece and other parts of the Western Med. In the Western European stream, Haplogroup P312 (proto Celtic) is today concentrated southward and westward, while U106 (Germanic) is concentrated northward. www.researchgate.net/publication/337741839_Jewish_men_in_the_most_common_European_Y-DNA_haplogroup_a_new_narrative_for_Jewish_R1b_The_FTDNA_Jewish_R1b_Project |

Thanks for the story Missouriboy.
There are 15 ships stuck up there in the Artic ice facing a very cold long winter.
Yet there is very little news about it in the media.
Could it be that it doesn't fit their "warmist" agenda?
