California dreamin

A warm and bright mid October afternoon on the Pacific coast, about 35 miles south of San Francisco, near Half Moon Bay. The Cowell Ranch State Beach and Park. After a shrimp and crab lunch at Duarte's in Pescadero with Mr B.

You see lots of layers of geological history in the cliffsides. Plenty of sea birds of various kinds. Standing on this elevation, there's also a warning sign that this is a tsunami belt and that in such an event, it would be good to seek even higher ground...

Toward Our Future

What the sons of Europa need is a new religion: one that is as tribal, portable and survivalist as Judaism, as masculine, terrestrial and tough as Islam and as intellectually and aesthetically creative as Christianity...with a dose of the unflinching realism of the ancestral ways of the Greeks and Romans, Germans and Celts and Slavs..And for the larger Indo-European frame, something of the Indian capacity to combine an ultimate and philosophical realization of The One with a robustly mytho-poetic religion on-the-ground. Oh, and some of the psychological acumen of Buddhism.

Liberalism's Basic Flaw

Liberals believe that the chief role of the State is to force everyone to be equal, (ie, take vengeance on the successful). So when they are confronted with any group that they deem less well off than themselves, they are morally disarmed, completely and utterly. Any group that can achieve Victim Status is on their way to power and the (White) liberal's only job is to give them what they want, no matter how much that damages him. And nothing may ever be expected, much less demanded, of them in return. It's a recipe for suicide: no other outcome is possible.
