The Trickle in the Dike

 I have not written in quite a while. I have been distracted with life things and have not kept up with writing about the trials and tribulations of Western Civilization. 

A lot has happened in the year, 2020 Anno Domini. We saw the fall of the Russia hoax that was used to foment the unsuccessful soft coup of the legally elected government of the United States of America. We saw the either intended or unintended release of an obviously engineered virus by communist China, which made millions ill, and exacerbated the conditions of millions more, accelerating their deaths. We saw insane reactions by governments to the virus outbreak which turned civilization on its head with lockdowns and restrictions. And, most recently, we are seeing social upheaval, particularly in the United States, which was triggered by the death of a drug addict who had overdosed and was subsequently taken into the custody of a local police department, under the theory that certain ethnic groups do not get fair treatment from society in a systemic fashion.

Where is all this going?

I don't know, and I would hesitate to speculate on the future. But there are things that we know to be true. There are forces at work fomenting upheaval of the status quo. The main political parties in the USA no longer have the best interests of the people at heart. Oligarchs are buying influence within all levels of government in the East and the West. Economies are being manipulated and wealth is being concentrated. Flagrant propaganda is being held up as truth.

None of these things is positive for the common man. There is no sign of any of these things letting up. This could be the new normal for the foreseeable future.

So, how are you coping?
