Dublin Is Burning. Where's Next?
Migrant stabs children. Irish riot for end to mass migration. A 'far-right' event?
We need to understand that these things below are connected. First, let’s watch this important 12-second clip from the late Lord Benn, a Labour MP:
In it he lists his Five Essential Questions Of Democracy:
“What power have you got?”
“Where did you get it from?”
“In whose interests do you use it?”
“To whom are you accountable?”
“How do we get rid of you?”
So, let’s move on to tonight’s European news.
Item: read this CNN analysis of the meaning of the Dutch election. Excerpt:
Even if Wilders is unable to implement the more radical parts of his manifesto and is contained by Europe more broadly, concerns remain about what his success does the rest of European politics. Populist victories tend to drag others further to the right.
The most obvious examples of this are in France, where President Emmanuel Macron has aped anti-Islam rhetoric in order to not be outflanked by Le Pen, and in the United Kingdom, where the center-right Conservative Party is almost unrecognizable after 13 years in power and the influence of Brexit.
The other concerns are that Wilders is somehow locked out of government or decides to martyr himself, rather than sell out in office. In Italy, Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni has not been quite the radical right-wing firebrand some feared when she took power in 2022, and has to some extent been contained by the EU. She is, therefore, seen as a sellout by others on the right.
What a revealing piece of analysis. The author, someone named Luke McGee, simply takes it as a given that the proper function of the European Union mechanism is to manage the unruly people to prevent their democratic wishes from coming true. This is how the Eurocrats have always regarded the voters: as serfs to be milked for tax money and legitimacy, but in no case allowed to govern themselves as they see fit. It’s telling that nowadays, the people in the ruling class’s media arm don’t even try to hide it. They live in such a cultural bubble that they assume everyone surely agrees.
Item: this afternoon in Dublin, a “naturalized Irish citizen” alleged to be Algerian went on a stabbing spree outside a school, injuring three children and two others. Excerpt:
Siobhán Kearney heard “screaming” and “spotted a guy with a stabbing motion across the road”, she said.
“So I took across the road and there was fellas there and they pulled the guy off the children. There was a good few kids.” The children were “between the ages of four, five and six, no older” and were “only just after finishing school”.
Item: a furious mob gathered immediately after the attack:
The scene was still sealed off shortly before 1800 GMT when a group of around 50 anti-immigrant protesters briefly broke through a police barrier. Some shouted "get them out" and one kicked the wing mirror off a police car. Another was draped in an Irish flag.
A larger crowd then began throwing objects and firing fireworks at riot police in helmets and shields, once they were deployed, and the rioting spiraled out of control. The crowds began to disperse around 2100 GMT.
Police would not comment on the nationality of the detained man.
Net migration among Ireland's 5.3 million population rose to its second highest level since records began in the 12 months to April and around 100,000 Ukrainian refugees have arrived since Russia's invasion, among the highest per capita in the EU.
"There is a group of people, thugs, criminals, who are using this appalling attack to sow division," Justice Minister Helen McEntee told reporters.
Nothing but thugs. Irish people angry about the mass migration engineered by their government are thugs and criminals who only want to “sow division.” Not the political elites who are bringing unprecedented numbers of foreigners into a country that was homogeneous until the day before yesterday.
Item: a rioting mob sets alight a Dublin hotel used to house “asylum seekers,” or “illegal migrants,” take your pick. An angry Irish public is fed up with the police:
Item: What happened in Dublin today is the fault of the “far-right,” says the copper:
For the record, there are no far-right political parties in Ireland. There is no far right to speak of. This is what the authorities say to draw public contempt off of what the ruling class has done and is doing to the ruled.
The Dublin police report some looting tonight in the city. Whoever did it, it’s horrible, and there is no excuse for it. Shame on all looters! I imagine many of them are native-born Irish. The videos I’ve seen of most looting show masked people of indeterminate origin. But here’s some video showing migrants doing it. And here is a photo of the man arrested on suspicion of knifing those kids:
Know what the most popular boy’s name in the Irish west coast city of Galway was last year? Muhammad. Ireland has been changing so very fast, owing to the government opening the doors to mass migration. Understand: I do not condone the rioting and violence in Ireland tonight! It was wrong, full stop. But only ideologues who don’t want to open their eyes to what’s happening could ever believe that a country that has been so unchanged for as long as Ireland has can accept that level of migration without trouble.
Here’s a clip from this past summer in which an tall young male African migrant rampages on Dublin’s O’Connell Street, threatening passersby. A woman’s voice says he tried to grab a child. Towards the end, the diversity-celebrator performs an act on the street that provokes a woman — no doubt a far-right hooligan — to chastise him thus: “Put your penis away, ya filthy animal, ya!”
Decent, law-abiding people in European cities have to put up with that all the time. Well, not here in Budapest, because the Orban government doesn’t let these migrants in. Viktor Orban is denounced by the European ruling class as “far right” because a majority of Hungarian voters like safe streets free of culturally-enriching wielders of knives and penises.
It’s crazy when you think about what docile Europeans put up with. Sweden has allowed its previous progressive governments to turn the country from one of Europe’s most stable and orderly to a crime leader. It’s now Scandinavia’s top country for gun violence and bombing. Why? Gang violence tied to mass migration. Nobody can deny it; they can only shame others for noticing. A few weeks back, the new Swedish right-wing prime minister told the nation he will probably have to use the army to restore order. They will never get the old Sweden back absent mass deportations. Good luck getting countries that got rid of those scumbags to take them back.
Britain we know is hopeless. Thirteen years of Tory government, and Brexit, but mass migration has only increased. We saw the results with gigantic pro-Hamas demonstrations, and British Jews having to live in fear. Did you ever seen Charlie Peters’s powerful documentary about the UK’s grooming gangs, in which Pakistani men turned working-class white English girls into sex slaves — and how the police did nothing about them because hey, diversity is our strength. And look, this is what passes for good news in Britain: a recent study found that the number of British Pakistani babies born in the heavily Muslim city of Bradford to parents who are either first or second cousins dropped from 60 percent to 46 percent. So now, slightly less than half of all babies born to Pakistanis in that British cities are at risk of genetic defects due to inbreeding — and this is progress.
What if I told you that the media who have long denounced the French writer Renaud Camus, author of the “Great Replacement” concept, got it all wrong? I believed their lies until I read a new English translation of some of Camus’s political essays, and saw that what Camus says is meaningfully different from what his accusers in the liberal media say he believes. As I wrote in The European Conservative:
A far more careful and attentive writer, the French-speaking American scholar of politics Nathan Pinkoski, emphasized in a Compact magazine article last year that Camus rejects conspiracy theory, and holds neither Islamist militants nor globalist elites responsible for ‘the Great Replacement.’
“Because mass immigration was endorsed across the political spectrum, and by those with very different economic interests, these origin stories are for Camus unlikely, if not impossible,” Pinkoski wrote. “Rather, he believes, the cause of the Great Replacement is a mass social and cultural transformation on the part of Europeans.”
What Europeans have done, in Camus’ view, is to turn their backs on their own culture, to loathe it, to mock it, and to forget it. They have been taught to do this by leftist ideology in schools, by liberal media pushing multiculturalism, but also by consumerism, economic globalism, and the triumph of technology. Camus calls this the Great Deculturation—and it is something that is happening to the United States too, for the same reasons.
The Great Deculturation is a form of civilizational suicide. A decultured people is one that doesn’t believe their culture is worth defending. Those who do stand up for traditional European cultural forms and values risk being called fascists and racists, and exiled to the margins, as Camus has been.
This is how it goes here in Europe, among the media and political elites: question the glories of mass migration, and they call you a fascist and a bigot. And if people in America only know about your words as filtered through US media, they’ll believe the worst about you. They’ll think that you are a “far right” figure, or worse. Maybe you just tell the truth about what ordinary people can see with their own eyes.
Here’s Geert Wilders saying the kinds of things that cause all the respectable members of the Netherlands’ ruling class to blow their tops:
In the short clip, Wilders points out that Moroccan migrants are wildly overrepresented in statistics as violent criminals. Here’s the thing: this was the case over twenty years ago too! From a piece I wrote for National Review in 2002:
What increasingly bothers the Dutch are freeloaders. Though the unemployment rate is just over 2 percent, 18 percent of the Dutch labor force is on the dole to some degree, with 11 percent receiving occupational-disability benefits under the widely abused system. Immigrants, who have a high unemployment rate, are another irritant. Eight percent of Holland’s 16 million people are of foreign descent, with more than half of them Muslims, mostly from Turkey and Morocco. Holland’s four largest cities–Amsterdam, The Hague, Rotterdam, and Utrecht–are home to the majority of immigrants. Almost half the population of Rotterdam, where Fortuyn launched his political career, is of foreign descent.
This has had unfortunate consequences. Earlier this month, the trade association representing Holland’s supermarkets announced that it would be shutting down stores in the immigrant-heavy inner cities unless the government got serious about policing the areas. That’s because young immigrant men from these neighborhoods are disproportionately represented in Dutch crime statistics. According to criminologist Chris Rutenfrans, a study in 2000 found that 33 percent of all criminal suspects are foreign-born, as are 55 percent of prison inmates. An astonishing 63 percent of those convicted of homicide are immigrants–Moroccans, Antilleans, and sub-Saharan Africans are the chief culprits. “The reason always given to explain these statistics is that they live in deprived circumstances,” says Rutenfrans. “But other minorities are similarly deprived, and they aren’t criminals.”
Can you believe that? For over twenty years, the Dutch have been dealing with this. And nothing has changed. At last, voters give Wilders more votes than his rivals, and the international establishment panics that “liberal democracy” is at stake. Seriously, here’s a headline from the Financial Times:
Do you see? If there’s a free and fair election, but the people elect a leader of whom the ruling class disapproves — Geert Wilders, Viktor Orban, and others — then “liberal democracy” is in danger. It’s only liberal democracy when voters choose candidates approved by the ruling class. Ask CNN, they’ll tell you.
According to official Dutch statistics, the three largest cities in the Netherlands are majority migrant!:
On 1 January 2018, 23 percent of the population of the Netherlands had a migration background; that percentage was higher in large cities. Just over half the residents of Amsterdam, Rotterdam and The Hague have a migration background; the fraction in Utrecht is a third.
But you are not allowed to notice that in the Netherlands, unless it is to praise that fact as a blessing of diversity and cultural enrichment.
The question isn’t, How did so many Dutch people vote for Geert Wilders? but rather, What took them so long?
We go back to Tony Benn’s questions about democracy:
“What power have you got?”
“Where did you get it from?”
“In whose interests do you use it?”
“To whom are you accountable?”
“How do we get rid of you?”
More and more Europeans will be asking those questions of the leadership class — the politicians, the business leaders, the academics, and the media. Maybe, just maybe, the people of Ireland and other nations will demand answers, and will take to the streets PEACEFULLY until those in power behave accountably — meaning in the best interests of the voters, not foreigners, not George Soros, not NGOs, not Big Business, and not left-wing ideologues in academia and media. You watch: in the Netherlands, the establishment is going to rally to keep the top vote-getter, Wilders, and his party out of power, even though the routine practice is for the top vote-getter to form a coalition and serve as prime minister. And then what will happen? Will the Dutch accept this as their fate, because “democracy” is only what the ruling class says it is?
If “liberal democracy” means the people of these countries have to consent to being replaced by cultural enrichers whom the ruling class believe are better to have around than the native-born (who are deplorably “far-right” anyway), then liberal democracy is not going to be long for Europe.
You know whose fault this will be? The ruling class in Brussels and other European capitals. The people who love their ideology more than they love their own peoples.
This particular newsletter is going out to the entire list, but only paying subscribers can comment. Why not give it a shot? It’s only five dollars per month, or fifty dollars per year, though because I live in a country with 17 percent inflation, I’m going to increase prices slightly in the new year — probably by only a dollar more per month, or $10 more per year. Still, because I write at least five newsletters per week, and usually more, that’s only about 25 cents per day at the current rate, and it won’t be much more. This next month will be the last time you can try at the current five-dollar monthly rate, though.
I disagree that the rioting is uncalled for. Riot away, Ireland. Riot so hard they're terrified. And then riot more until they get the point.
My early elementary daughter was sexually assaulted on a school bus last year, in addition to experiencing daily violence at her public school. She's now at wonderful Christian school. When we came forward with complaints, we were ignored (you know, those other kids have trauma). We were actually laughed at by the immigrant assistant superintendent (he mocked me, a teacher with lots of experience, when I pointed out the cultural problems that exist in the district).
It's easy to say rioting is wrong, but it's different when extremist leftist lunatics enable a culture that harms your child. If the Irish are up against people like those that run my child's former district, I say keep rioting. Otherwise they're just laughing at you.
The list of dangerous "far right" extremists gets longer every day: Trump, Elon, Rogan, Tucker, Orban, DeSantis, Peterson and now Wilders and that guy who won in Argentina.
The message from our globalist overlords and their MSM propaganda wing is becoming clearer and harder to deny: you either obey us and convert to the Social Justice belief system (the One Truth Faith of our Western elites) or else we will smear you with bigotry accusations, depict you as beyond the moral pale, and do all we can to destroy you.
The globalist corporate class and the civilizational termites of the New Left have joined forces because they both have the same enemies and the same goal: to smother all native Western populations in a tsunami of mass immigration and mass guilt and shame (backed by a full-spectrum propaganda assault designed to make the average person believe "All Good People do as we say and quietly accept their colonization") designed to render them mute and powerless, with no choice but to submit if they don't want to be denounced and immiserated.
These people have no idea of the backlash they're creating, will be the last ones to see it coming, and will never ever take responsibility for their actions. They have tied themselves to the party line of "Everyone who dissents is a dangerous extremist who needs to be banned and monitored". I guess we're all "far right" now.
