Kunstler: Boomer Elegy
History will probably record that America’s Baby Boom generation threw one helluva party; Gen X was left with the sorry task of cleanup crew; and the Millennials ended up squatting in the repossessed haunted party-house when it was all over. On behalf of the Boomers, let me try to explain and apologize.
We came along at the end of history’s earlier biggest trauma, the Second World War, following the hard stumble of the Great Depression — which, by the way, for those of you unsure of chronology, followed the First World War, an epic, purposeless slaughter that utterly demoralized Western civilization. What a set-up for my parents’ generation.
My stepfather, the man who raised me, was an interesting specimen of that gen. Fresh out of college in Boston, he joined the army, became a lieutenant, and by-and-by found himself trapped in the German offensive through the Ardennes Forest, known as the Battle of the Bulge. Unlike some WW2 vets, he was willing to talk about his experiences. His most vivid memory was the difference between the sound of American and German machine guns. Ours went rat-a-tat-tat, theirs went zzzzzzzap, he said, like you couldn’t even detect the interval between the bullets coming at you. It scared the piss out of his men, not a few of whom were cut to pieces. My stepfather merely caught several chunks of shrapnel in his arm and thigh, and was still on the scene when Germany finally surrendered in May, 1945. He was awarded a silver star for valor, but never bragged on it. (My mother barely participated in my upbringing, but that’s another story.)
He went straight to New York City when it was over. His gen’s victory dance was to get straight to work in the economic bonanza just revving up — because the war had happened elsewhere and all our stuff was intact, ready to re-start, to make and sell anything under the sun to the shattered rest-of-the-world, and lend them money to buy it — quite an opportunity for young men highly disciplined and regimented from their recent travails of war. My stepfather became a classic Mad Man, as in the TV series, working in media, publishing, and PR, a hard-drinking cohort of mostly military vets who would knock down three martinis over lunch with clients (a nearly inconceivable feat, actually, when you think about it), but that showed what the war had done to the soldiers who survived. He died from it at barely sixty, and from smoking two packs of Camel straights a day, another habit of battle.
We Boomer boys had his war as movies and comic books: Sergeant Rock and John Wayne on the beach at Iwo! We had all the fruits of that postwar bonanza. We had Disneyland, the 1964 World’s Fair, the Carousel-of-Progress, and Rock Around the Clock. We eventually had a war of our own, Vietnam, but it was optional for college kids. I declined to go get my ass shot off, of course.
You have no idea what a fantastic bacchanal college was in the 1960s. Let the sunshine in! The great anti-war protests gave us a chance to pretend we were serious, but, believe me, it was much more about finding someone to hook-up with at the teach-ins and the street marches. The birth control pill was a fabulous novelty. We ignored the side-effects — especially the social side effects that led later on to an epidemic of divorces and broken families. When you are a young man, sex is at least half of what you think of minute-by-minute. I was on a campus where all you saw were waves of nubile, joggling breasts coming at you beneath those sheer peasant blouses (which, you understand, suggests that the women were in on it, too, being every bit as incited by their own frisky hormones).
Personally, I was not altogether on board with the hippie program, though I let my hair grow. A lot about it gave me the creeps — the lurid posters of Hindu gods with elephant heads, the dumb-ass “Hey, man,” lingo, the neurotic sharing of everything from clothing to money, the wooly armpits, the ghastly organic cuisine…. I mostly eschewed drugs, never dropped acid, and smoked pot infrequently due to a chastening episode of frightening paranoia early on. Anyway, after Charlie Manson’s caper, the whole thing lost its luster and by the early 1970s there wasn’t much left but sideburns, and by then many of us were in an office of some kind.
Which is probably where things really went off the rails. The Boomers should never have been allowed in those offices, especially the ones within ten miles of Wall Street. That’s where the cleverest among us came up with the signal innovations that have now wrecked the world. The corona virus is a very bad thing, for sure, but it’s really nothing compared to the deliberate wickedness that engineered the so-called financialized economy — a supernatural matrix of something-for-nothing swindles and frauds that purported to replace actual work that produced things of value. The great lesson of the age was lost: the virtual is not a substitute for the authentic.
And now the Boomer geniuses of finance are scrambling frantically to hurl imaginary money into the black hole they have opened with their own reckless wizardry. But black holes are nothing like ordinary holes. They are unfillable. They just suck everything into a cosmic vacuum that resembles something like death — which, in its implacable mystery, may just be a door to a new disposition of things, the next life, the next reality.
Of course, not all of us Boomers worked on Wall Street or in its annexes, but we did more or less go along with all that wickedness because we never really made any earnest effort to stop it. The Dodd-Frank bill? Don’t make me laugh. Maybe it’s just impossible to apologize for the mess we left behind after the party we enjoyed. I’m not a Christian in any formal sense, but perhaps only that kind of fathomless, unconditional forgiveness might avail. I am sincerely sorry.

Me too. Am sorry for never truly seeing the magnitude of reality. I am a mid world baby boomer. Born right in the midst of the fifties.What did we know? Did we know better? Yes I think we knew better but we were to preoccupied with our own world view of youth and changing the world, for the better. In some ways we did through environmentalism and the peace movements, however we were all shanghaied along the way into the capitalistic meme of greed? Not sure exactly , I can say this the old folks all told me the same thing life goes by fast, even when you think life, it is for ever.

Kunstler is one of my most favorite, thoughtful writers of today, certainly if confined to the Anglo realm. I especially like his tone. He is a generalist, not an oil or energy specialist. He may have been a little too pessimistic with his “world made by hands” vision, but he is right about decline and the inevitability to go back to the basics. He probably hardly understands the geopolitical chess game, that was played in the run-up to WW1 and WW2, yet he completely refrains from anti-German moralizing, probably while he understands that the official story is one-sided.
He understands that the old order is about to disappear and will be replaced with something new. Corona could very well be that unexpected black swan event that will trigger that change.

China profits from corona and advances in the geopolitical pecking order:

“China was once the cradle of the coronavirus pandemic but it has bounced back with astonishing speed, writes EDWARD LUCAS as he reveals the country may have won the war for global supremacy as well”
ut the image of a confident, capable and generous China, a true superpower, contrasts all too sharply with the flailing response of Donald Trump in America. Or indeed the increasingly hapless efforts of our own government.
But for all our frustration at our own leaders, we cannot ignore how this pandemic has highlighted China’s long-term strategy and motivation. Be in no doubt: the People’s Republic of China aims by 2049 to dominate the world.
True. As a consequence the rest of the world needs to get its act together and respond. Not to paint China into the corner as the next enemy after the USSR, but as a great power that needs to be contained. The rise of China and the decline of the US-Anglosphere will dictate the merger of Russia into Europe, something Gorbachev and Putin have been consistently hinting at, has been picked up by Macron, but is still resisted by the witch from Berlin, who remains loyal to the US deep state, in an effort to sit out Trump, in the hope that the last party under control by the deep state, the Dems, will take over again and that the old West will be restored, with a globalist America on top and European countries the obedient vassals.
Macron is the future, Merkel will be gone next year.

Economics-ignorant physicians are bankrupting us. Affluent medical practicioners, whose whole profession is based on medical care regardless of cost to patients, and who are responsible for gigantic and unpayable medical bills which destroy the life savings of untold numbers, are using faulty computer models to support their demands that the country be shut down to “save” us from the Chinese virus. These “experts” never have to worry about the bills for their services, so they have no interest in the consequences of their advice to terminate all business activity. Yes, they have lots of medical degrees and experience, and it is said that they “mean well,” but their grasp of the larger picture is deficient, defective, and deathly.
The Leftist media and anti-White Democrats, exploiting this crisis, seek to communize the country so they can establish their Gulag archipelago for Whites and change not only the country but the globe. If they succeed, and senile Biden wins the presidential election in November, the Chicom virus will be the least of our worries.

You have no clue what is going on in China because they are a place of lies and repression. I suspect the place is going to blow once the people that were used to the old situation of 6% growth will be pissed once that is over. I went into STL yesterday and it look very normal to me. Some non-essential business close. Everybody is practicing social distancing. The blue enclaves with high population densities might see civil unrest but not much. What are people going to do? They will be too worried about food soon and unrest just makes the situation worse. You are an 20/7 spamming Anglo deranged person that is afraid to look around your neighborhood.

Your white America is finished and will have to reinvent itself in order to survive diversity and that can only mean: away from unattainable global hegemony, away from self-defeating globalism and most decisively away from Washington and NYC, that house the brains of empire. White America needs to grossly lower its ambition and aim for the example of America First of 1776-1890, without “foreign entanglements”. Your kosher over-class won’t let you escape though, not without a fight… so you have to fight.
You were unable to escape from the British in 1776 without continental European help.
Likewise you won’t be able to escape from said (kosher-dominated) globalist over-class without continental European intervention and the Chinese gobbling up the remains of the US empire in the western Pacific, including unprotected Down Under.
The neocon aspirations of a “New American Century” are still not entirely dead. And exactly these unattainable aspirations are a gigantic burden to the US, because it inspires rising Eurasian powers (China, EU, Russia, Iran) to organize the “defense” (soon offense) against an opponent, everybody knows is on the way out, although it pretends not to. In the jungle every predator preys on the weakest and cornered first, just like the US and Soviets preyed on post-Versailles Europe after 1933. Now the historic tide has turned.
Anglos are well-advised to pull out their dirty Anglo-supremacist t-shirt and dispose of it once-and-for-all and concentrate on what is beneath that t-shirt: a European identity of thousands years old, rooted in Christianity and below that: Greek-Roman civilization.

“near-record delays are an indication of global supply chains being decimated by factory closures around the world,” the report pointed out. And this quirk just “masks the severity of the slump in manufacturing.” “We need to look at the survey’s output and new orders gauges to get a better understanding of the scale of the likely hit to the economy that will come from the manufacturing sector’s collapse, and these indices hint at production falling at the sharpest rate since 2009, dropping an annualized rate approaching double digits.” Nevertheless, unlike the collapse in services that is far outpacing the decline during the Financial Crisis, manufacturing (even with the quirk of supply-chain delays removed) still isn’t plunging at the rate it did during the Financial Crisis.”

As spring starts in Europe, farms are rushing to find enough workers to pick strawberries and asparagus, after border closures prevented the usual flow of foreign labourers. France has called on its own citizens to help offset an estimated shortfall of 200,000 workers. More wide-scale crop losses are looming in India, where a lockdown has sent masses of workers home, leaving farms and markets short of hands as staple crops like wheat near harvest”

Joining me today are Keith Woods and Mark Brahmin.
Main topic: Anarcho-Tyranny
It’s not just the flu, bro. It’s not a Democratic hoax. And it’s not magically going away in April.
Coronavirus is here, and it’s created a “new normal” for over half the population of the planet, who are quarantined in their homes with only Netflix and OnlyFans there to carve out a semblance of community.
The panel takes a step back and looks at what the Corona crisis reveals about us, the nature of government, and the future of geopolitics.
Most pundits and politicians will be spared by Coronachan . . . only to be destroyed by their unbearably bad takes. Coronavirus has separated the wheat from the chaff; it’s revealed the weakness and incompetance of the “world’s only Superpower,” and clouded the future.
The panel discusses Pan-Europeanism, Carl Schmitt and Sam Francis, the My Pillow guy’s political religion, and the decline of the American empire.
No topic is too pretentious or arcane for this panel of pseudo-intellectual posers.

“To fight conspiracy theories, fake news and propaganda”
British-Ukrainian jew wants to “regulate” the ENTIRE INTERNET and gets a platform by deep state media:

The West is to become the next USSR, where again the Pomerantsev’s of this world determine what thoughts are legal and what not.

“Trump’s Deranged Letter to Chuck Schumer Should Be Put on Display in the National Archives as a Warning: Don’t Elect a Game-Show Host as President”
I don’t know– humor is not a bad thing with late stage capitalism?

Chuck Schumer needs to catch the virus. He deserves it.

“I don’t think even the most skeptical of American power or dominance ever expected it to be this bad. But then, we never elected a celebrity clown to be president before either.”
I agree, a clown, but a bit harsh.
The Fat Boy just isn’t that smart.
A good con man, I agree.

Trump is nothing more than an uneducated con artist. It is obvious to the whole world how low Amerika has sunk in the swamp. 330,000,000 people and he is the best for the job? LMAO!

I went to my local hospital in Montreal. Walking toward the main entrance, there were 3 nurses there, I look at them and said, we are going to die, we are going to die, they all look at me and smile.
Go to the lobby of the hospital, two 90lbs female security guards, I said again, we are going to die, a lot of people are going to die, both security guard smile at me with a big smile. I left the lobby saying saying fuck very loudly.
When to the outside tent, nobody, I told the security guard, if this shit does not stop we are going to have social revolution. The guy did not seem to understand the meaning of the word social revolution.

The giant populations off Brazil, Indonesia and Philippines are only now entering the acceleration phase, meaning that the number of global cases could soar in the coming weeks.

India knows the truth about the China virus crime!
India Drags China To International Court For COVID-19 War
As a direct impact of extensive GreatGameIndia reporting on the sinister aspect of Coronavirus being manufactured as a biological weapon, now India has dragged China to international court for waging COVID-19 War. India’s complaint to the United Nations Human Rights Council seeking compensation from China specifically presents as evidence GreatGameIndia‘s report on how Chinese biowarfare agents stole Coronavirus from a Canadian lab and weaponized it at Wuhan Institute of Virology. In addition to the Indian complaint, a $20 trillion lawsuit has also been filed against China for waging a Biological war in Texas Federal Court, alleging that it unleashed the coronavirus as a bioweapon upon the world. GGI has come under massive attack for reporting these stories from so-called fact-checker organisations like NewsGuard who themselves are funded by Bill Gates to clear their name. The mainstream media owes GGI a big apology for slandering our name, failing to ask the basic question of ‘conflict of interest’. The Complaint The International Council of Jurists (ICJ) and All India Bar Association have moved the United Nations Human Rights Council seeking compensation from China for “surreptitiously developing a biological weapon capable of mass destruction.” The complaint was penned by senior advocate Adish C. Aggarwala, the Chairperson of All India Bar Association and President of International Council of Jurists, in the backdrop of the spread of deadly coronavirus, which has claimed thousands of lives across the world. “It is humbly prayed that the UNHRC may be pleased to enquire and direct China and to adequately compensate international community and member states, particularly India, for surreptitiously developing a biological weapon capable of mass destruction of mankind,” Aggarwala stated in the complaint.
