Why The inception of ‘Democracy’ into the culture to replace ‘Republic’ matters

Trying to solve the problem of the conquest of Western Civilization can be tricky as it was done more by subversion than force of arms. This means that the people being conquered accept the terms, definitions and concepts the enemies of Western Civilization in place of their own. They have in fact, replaced enemy concepts with the ones that actually define our individualist and equal rights culture and polities.
Amazingly, there is no specific term to describe this process in English. Trying to drill down to use one, we get a few near misses:

Conceptual subversion
Lexical subversion
Semantic corruption
Ideological substitution
Semantic Implantation

I think it is time for another movie reference.

In the film, Inception (2010) the core concept was that people who owned equipment that allowed the user to enter the dreams of a target would then implant an idea which the target would believe was of their own creation.

Although this isn’t a perfect fit, for the moment let’s call this process, cultural-inception. Incepting an entire culture with a terminology which damages the target culture and advantages the attacking culture.

One of the main terms was the substitution of the word and concept of a Republic with the word and concept (more or less) “democracy”.

This was so well done that when you bring it up in most cases you get a lot of frustrated pushback.

People will feel you are being unnecessarily pedantic in your language. Or take it personally that you are deconstructing terms with which they are comfortable. You will see and feel people’s irritation with you.

But this particular Culturally-incepted switcheroo really does matter.

First, another excellent video from Counter-spell on this subject:

Now examples of how people’s belief that they live in a Democracy, a self fulfilling and destructive belief for that matter, are legion. We see a constant stream of evidences where the Republic with its foundational concepts such as freedom of speech and equality before the law, is deconstructed by democracy. Concepts such as equality before the law are dialectically negated with terms like “Equity”, which is opposite to equality. In fact it is systemic inequality.

Online Harms replaces freedom of speech. The list grows weekly.

Here is just one recent example. The end of the equal system of food safety and anti-animal cruelty laws in America to advantage Muslims, and advance Halal slaughter and the religious practices of Muslims to supersede secular slaughter and animal cruelty laws. And of course, this will not be an isolated example of sharia law replacing rule of law. This is just one bubo indicating the black plague infection of the culture by leftism and Islam.

In a real way this is a trivial example of the process. Most legislative changes as a result of narrative attacks on Western republics, (and as Stephen Coughlin has pointed out, pretty much all Western nations post WW2 are republics or approximate one) are more serious transformational events. But this one is simple, visible, and as you can see in this video, even some on the woke-left object to it.

It is also interesting that the news report point out that some Muslims even object. This is the reporter using what we have come to know as the Oscar Schindler effect. because one or some small number of people went against their own identity group for the sake of values we understand and like, it somehow exonerates the ideology that necessitated the resistance.

In fact: Schindler was a good person but a bad Nazi.

Self identified Muslims who object to the dismantling of Western Civilization for purposes of Global-Islamic manifest destiny are likewise, bad Muslims, but good people.

We must remember that a free nation that values equality before the law and individualism as existent, is a republic and that the shift to democracy is the death knell of all we value. It must be fought.

On Silver and the State: How will the government respond to people who used PMs to navigate their way out of state control?

While there is a lot of material to post, massive instability all over the place, Russians victories in Ukraine, Riots in the streets in Iran due to a currency collapse and more, there is not a lot of time to post them with any purposeful commentary. Lots in the Reader’s Links posts though. Hopefully lots of people are perusing them.

The video below is by someone who makes obviously AI videos, and way too often to be thought out. Still, they are pretty good on his subject, which is silver and the game of musical chairs with derivatives which appears to be ending with only the people holding physical metal with a seat.

The reason I feel this is worth posting, despite the many obvious AI tells, like the annoying and quasi meaningful juxtapositions which is so typical of Chat GPT writing, is because the core concepts are extremely similar to my own best thinking on the subject, In this case, how the state may deal with people who actually managed to accumulate physical metal to navigate the obvious engineered crisis the state is creating. But the state also takes new additional powers in an emergency, and what defines an emergency keeps expanding. We really saw that clearly during Covid when a seasonal flu meant a communist revolution.

In any case, here is a recent interview by the AI Silver guy.

Any and all comments on what he has to say, especially once he gets into the subject is appreciated. it certainly is in harmony with the famous Mark Twain quote: “History does not repeat itself. But it does rhyme”. But that rhyme will be at least as awful for us all as was the 1934 state move against people who held metals.

Hi Ho Silver, Saudis on Qatar, Daily rage videos, Helen Grus video and more: Links 1 for December 29th, 2025

1. There are a LOT of videos out there discussing the recent rise of the price of silver. There is also a common thread in them, that prices have been and continue to be driven by the differential between a free market price of the metal and large financial institutions creating a casino around the prices of silver with derivatives called ‘shorts’. This is where you make up pretend silver and buy and sell it knowing that your client will likely sell his imaginary silver for cash without ever asking for delivery of the metal itself, and in a way that profits the short seller. More importantly, the shorts act in a way that actually tamps down the price of the metal for the very few who actually demand delivery of it.

This is great for people who just want to buy physical silver metal to have and to hold, and Jewellery makers and other industrial users of Silver who need the metal to make things and therefore get it at way below what a free market price would be.

It is bad for people who want to use Silver as a hedge against manipulation of the dollar, or better put, use it as a way to preserve the actual value of your own savings as it compares to real purchasing power.

For reasons stated on dozens of YouTube videos posted in the comments at Vlad over the years and occasionally on the site proper, the ability to control reality with narrative, which is essentially what controlling a real market with a short actually is, that ability is broken.

As George Orwell wrote in 1984 (Paraphrasing) when it comes to philosophical and political matters, 2+2=5 or whatever else you say it does. But when it comes to making guns bullets and bombs, 2+2 always = 4.

And when companies who make batteries, solar panels and electronically guided missiles need physical silver, they will not accept being paid out in cash (futures contracts) or any substitute for paying out money and taking delivery of the actual metal they actually need.

Lots of people are making lots of videos predicting the logical outcomes of this, and some of them have been right on the silver. The nice thing is, unlike Global Warming and other narrative attacks, the predictions aren’t 2 to 10 years away, they are for tomorrow, next week and next month. So checking the accuracy of their model is fun, easy and fast.

The video below is a good explanation of why suddenly the price has plummeted over 14 dollars in the last few hours (as of 10:37 AM ET Dec 29 2025) since it opened to a new record high of USD $83.93/Oz.

One thing seems certain though.

These players will deploy variables we cannot see in order to protect their interests and positions.

I am not an expert at financial matters. And that may be the understatement of 2025.

But it seems like everything you need to know about finances and the markets and the economy can be know merely by as clear an understanding of the Game Stop scandal, well it should have been a scandal but wasn’t officially, that you can know.

When people who actually fudged the manipulation of stock prices by real world purchases of a stock in order to hurt the people using shorts to devalue the company. the giant hedge fund went to the Biden admin and got special regulations passed to make sure that couldn’t happen again.

So looking at the rules is a suckers game. But betting on reality to win in the long run will always pay off. If the state doesn’t arrest you for it that is. Even so, reality will still win even if we don’t benefit from that bet.

2. Saudi official explains how Qatar and other Islamic states are funding Islamic terror and supporting it in various ways.

3. Just a few fast rage-bait headlines showing illegal (I don’t care what piece of paper they have. Paper citizenship is a derivative and a narrative attack on the people of a nation state) Muslim migrants in the West. COMINTERN governments are paying these people to come here, and paying their living expenses. And even”Conservative” leaders are demanding the state “build them homes”. Therefore they are paid to do exactly what they are doing. Court verdicts bear this out as well.

TWO MORE Islamic Terror Attacks Against Christmas Markets Foiled In Europe

There have been so many attacks on Christmas related events in Europe and North America that it is now dog bites man. A solid indicator of where our own state is in terms of its intentions for the actual creators of the civilizations in which we live.

Hamas supporters take over Eaton’s Centre in Toronto in much more aggressive way than even usual.

Toronto, yesterday.

This site has been posting videos of this exact Islamic dominance tactic for nearly 20 years, back when Muslims would block the Barber district in Paris and stop all traffic, foot and car, on local roads to show dominance. People didn’t pay attention then, and clearly are not now that is is common in Ottawa, Toronto and Montreal. There is no reason that this is being allowed other than they want it to happen. None. You could build a mosque for every Muslim in Canada and they would still do these acts of dominance until there is total submission to Islam by everyone in Canada. In fact, Islam means submission. Remember that when a Muslim lies to you and tells you it means peace. It doesn’t. It means submission.

Michigan Imam explains yet one of the many ways Muslims claim that they are superior to all other people. In this case because they are willing to die to kill us.

As it happens I was on the phone with a colleague in Montreal yesterday and heard in the background, Muslims in a convoy on Montreal streets with a loud speaker on the back truck demanding death to zionists etc.

This is an interesting thought:

All their videos are right on point. Some of them are deeply profound. The one below is among my favourites.

On Spellcraft and political warfare.

Thank you all for checking out this site and its perspectives on the machinery and machinations of the Matrix that appear to be the control panel for what we see as reality around us.

New video on Helen Grus. The importance of this cannot be overstated. Both to Canada and the way in which the law operates overall. The Helen Grus hearings has been a solid indicator of the pivot from rule of law, to a dialectical, or political outcomes basis for adjudicating cases.

Western Standard does colour commentary on the Communist transformation of Canada

For this purpose, “colour commentary” means to describe the play on the field as if for radio but with no actual explanation of why a thing was done.

There are several layers or spheres to the way information is disseminated in the West now from our perspective. Official narrative dissemination, AKA state propaganda, which has its own subcategories of course, and colour commentary sites, which would be people who notice the effects of various dialectic attacks on our civilization but can’t see past the attack itself to the cause, purpose, or weapons used for it, and the rare strategic look at what is collapsing Western Civ and it’s offspring, individualism.

There are of course more ways of parsing this and more categories depending on which angle you choose to examine the gestalt of information dissemination. And there are many, many counter-measures against real information getting to the public which are extremely effective. Exaggerated or invented claims of horror for one, so that the ‘reasonable man’ will dismiss the real attacks and damages is one way.

During Covid, social media, YouTube and Rumble were rife with the sudden appearance of people with millions of followers who you had never heard of, that made ludicrous claims like dead people emanating Blue tooth signals from the grave caused by formation of home networks by the mRNA shots as just one example.

CBC are masters of different kinds of information attacks. Faking truth-to-power interviews with state apparatchiks where they appear to be making tough demands on the State apparatus when really it is justifying and promoting even more extreme measures and attacks on our liberties than the state was currently doing in order to make existing totalitarian policy look benign and benevolent instead of authoritarian and ultra-vires, which it actually is and was.

“Quebec is implementing Curfews, why aren’t we here in XXX?”. “Trudeau promised there would be enough vaccines for everyone to have 2 shots by now. Why are they not here for us?” as two examples of many.

The Western Standard has a great piece describing what Stephen Coughlin would call, “dialectical bombs” while fully ignoring the actual weapon used to make and drop them.

They list:

State funded (and controlled) media

censorship and arrests of journalists

laws that will destroy freedom of speech and some religions

Demolition of legacy statuary etc. that is iconic to the more or less republic of Canada.

Changing of street names away from legacy founders of The Canadian culture and polity.

Removal of firearms from the law abiding public

Destruction of Christian Churches

MASSIVE increase in size of bureaucracy

Communist party policies match Governing Liberal party policies, including moving away from the USA

regular 2 minutes of hate against Goldstein Donald Trump

Unified political parties in agreement on anything that actually matters.

CBC Dialectical bomber

The communist state does do what the WS describes here. But the things it notices are symptoms of the communist polity. Without the next layer up it’s about as useful as telling people that it is raining outside while everyone is standing in a deluge without an umbrella. The odd rare person may be in denial of the fact that it is raining buckets, but very few will notice what made it rain and to what purpose.

At its core, the communist state is a dialectical state. The Republic is a state where truth determines policy. The communist state is where narratives are created to force policy that always, always moves power from the individual to the state. In other words, leftwards. Ultimately the goal is a god-like state, exactly as explained in Orwell’s 1984 but is rather well illustrated in some of the recent videos we have posted about North Korea.

There is nothing exceptional about North Korea’s leader-worship. The Soviet Union created The Institute of the Brain as a propaganda organ to promote the idea that Lenin was superhuman. If not an actual God, a saint at least. We can all choke on our own gorge as we think forward to giant statues of Justin Trudeau and Mark Carney set in every town and ready for worship.

Communism never allows reality to overrule ideology

So while the Western Standard’s laundry list of actual end results of various dialectic attacks on Canada is kinda nice to see, and maybe, just maybe a few people will wake up to a basic cause and effect categorical syllogism: ‘Communism destroys Churches, Canada destroys hundreds of churches, Canada is communist’ is maybe useful. But the method used to destroy the churches was dialectic attacks such as Land Claims pledges at every school picnic and public function in Canada, and of course the Mass Graves at residential schools lie.

[At the time the graphic was made illustrating some of CBC’s dialectic attacks against Canadians and our reality as a whole, the Mass Graves Maoist-Mass line narrative attack had not yet started]

 

For those of you who have a WS subscription or still have a few free posts to read, have a look. It’s a decent catalogue of the effects of communism, if not a mention of the methods to achieve them, and frankly at the very core of the issue. What differentiates a communist society from a republic. The actual epistemology of it. The reversal of cause and effect. The dissolution of all notions of the existence of the individual and the rights associated with that concept.

Republics use Truth to determine policy and outcomes. (new laws, regulations and trial and hearings outcomes)

Communism invents narratives to destroy truth.

If you want an easy mnemonic:

Republics use reason based conclusions.

Communist societies use conclusion based reasoning.

Just watch or read any of the hearings from professional organizations against members who defied narrative from a place of authority and were telling the truth. Dozens of doctors who did not want to coerce their own patients into taking the shots, or worse, warned patients not to.  Or Ottawa Police Detective Helen Grus for instance, who’s mere investigation into a very unusual increase in infant deaths shortly after the mRNA shots were coerced on the public was such a threat to the new Communist state that they crafted an entire new rule that no police officer may launch an investigation where the findings may have political consequences without permission.

Please take a minute and let that sink in. It is the throwing of a core principle of a republic into a tub of aqua-regia.

Politicians and policy are now officially above the law.

Now think about anyone you know who might have woken up to the notion that the mRNA shots were damaging and more importantly, that the state lied when it said they were safe and effective. Not mistaken, lied. Then ask those same people about the mass graves at Residential schools, Global warming, 15 minute cities etc. and see if they are still willing to accept each new mass line as they land.

Understand the dialectic process of the dissolution of Western Civilization or be forever its victim.

Minnesota, Canada-Greenland and King Charles’ curious obsequiousness to Islam: Links 1 for December 27, 2025

A couple of subjects have been dominating my Twitter time line. Evidence of the massive fraud by Somalis in Minnesota and elsewhere they have been settled in the USA, and court-worthy proof that the 2020 election was indeed stolen from Donald Trump. So much so demands by some Republican Representatives are already in place to refund the fines taken from former NYC Mayor, Rudy Giuliani to the tune of USD$148M.

Here are some of the more interesting items on these and one or two other subjects. Not to be frozen out, but the UK’s rapid decent into Soviet/Maoist communism is so steep that the rest of us may get the Bends just watching it.

1. 42 minute video on exposing Minnesota fraud. Millions given to school with no students. You know for one example.

 

2. The state of British authoritarianism

UK Teacher Referred to Anti-Terror Programme for Showing Students Trump Videos: Report

A schoolteacher in England was reportedly referred to the United Kingdom’s counter-terrorism programme and accused of a potential “hate crime” after he showed his students Donald Trump videos.

Henley College, which teaches sixth-form students aged between 16 and 18 years old, reported the unnamed teacher to the Local Authority Designated Officer (LADO), which in turn found that his views “could be perceived as radical” and therefore should be referred to the government’s Prevent anti-terror programme, The Telegraph reported.

A schoolteacher in England was reportedly referred to the United Kingdom’s counter-terrorism programme and accused of a potential “hate crime” after he showed his students Donald Trump videos.

Henley College, which teaches sixth-form students aged between 16 and 18 years old, reported the unnamed teacher to the Local Authority Designated Officer (LADO), which in turn found that his views “could be perceived as radical” and therefore should be referred to the government’s Prevent anti-terror programme, The Telegraph reported.

The programme is was established to stop individuals, particularly young people, from becoming radicalised and going down the path leading to extremism and terrorism.

According to the broadsheet, the LADO report said: “There is concern that this behaviour could cause harm to a child, there could be a criminal offence from the views which could constitute a hate crime and it’s possible that his promoting of views could be radicalisation.”

Among the videos shown to the U.S. Politics class were a video of President Trump’s inauguration and the ‘Daddy’s Home’ music video by Canadian ‘MAGA’ rapper Tom MacDonald, which featured Trump-supporting American comedian Roseanne Barr.

Be fun to see how many Muslims reading Koran were reported under this program, and how many people who tried to report Muslims under this program were themselves arrested for islamophobia or some other hate crime.

4. Bill C-3 just became Law in Canada.

Full text:

? BREAKING: Bill C-3 Just Became Law And It’s a Massive Win for Globalist Elites ?

Folks, as of December 15, 2025, Bill C-3 (An Act to Amend the Citizenship Act) is officially law after receiving Royal Assent on November 20 and coming into force yesterday.

What does it actually do?
•Ends the “first-generation limit” on citizenship by descent, introduced back in 2009 under Harper.
•Automatically grants or restores Canadian citizenship to tens of thousands of “Lost Canadians” and their descendants born abroad before the law – even if they have zero recent ties to Canada.
•Going forward, allows Canadians born abroad to pass citizenship to their kids born overseas if the parent spent at least 1,095 days (3 years cumulative) in Canada at any point before the child’s birth.
•No time limit on accumulating those days, no language/test requirements in the final version – opposition amendments for tougher checks were voted down.

This isn’t fixing a small glitch. This opens the floodgates to “citizens of convenience” – people who may never live here, pay taxes here, or even speak our languages, but can now claim full citizenship rights: voting, passports, healthcare access for family, you name it.

Mark Carney’s Liberals rammed this through with NDP support (177-163 vote at third reading). Critics warned it devalues what it means to be Canadian, turning citizenship into an endless chain with minimal connection required.

Trudeau once praised China’s “dictatorship” for getting things done without opposition. Now, under Carney, we’re quietly expanding citizenship globally while everyday Canadians struggle with housing, costs, and borders.

Is this about fairness for families… or diluting the value of Canadian citizenship forever?

Wake up, Canada. Our identity is being redefined without a real national debate.

What do YOU think? Is this progress or a dangerous overreach?

5. What Trump’s National Security Strategy Means for Canada

Canada receives but a passing mention in the recently released U.S. National Security Strategy, but that doesn’t mean it will not have an impact here.

In many ways, it already does. Canada as a neighbour was among the first countries to be affected by key policy changes brought forth by U.S. President Donald Trump.

Aside from hard security and economics, Trump’s National Security Strategy also puts significant focus on somewhat more of a cultural concern—and that is civilizational decline.

The strategy says that the path followed by some European countries on regulation and immigration will lead to their demise. While Canada is not mentioned specifically, it applies similar policies.

Trump’s National Security Strategy is dated November 2025 and was publicly released in early December.

For the US to survive, it has to take Canada and Greenland as states before China takes them both completely. There is no other way since Canada is surrendering itself to China as fast as the cheques clear the banks.

Thank you all for checking out this site.

I quite like the meme below. It is both true, and extremely important as we tend to like to look prophetic by saying its over, we have lost, and other defeatist outlooks as given the pressure we are under, defeat seems easier than the continued fight. But the Muslims lost WW1 and the Nazis lost WW2 and here they both are again on the verge of victory. So remember this please:

On Narrative attacks, and repressive tolerance in action: Links 1 for December 26, 2025

For those of you watching the silver markets and especially those who purchased physical silver based on the advice and data that this site, and most notably comments and posts by Johnny U, we may notice that the predictions and explanations provided for what was inevitable, appear to be happening now, and appear to be for the exact reasons given over years. We extend our thanks to JohnnyU for his dedication to this issue and for how it hopefully has benefited many readers of this site, who recognized the reasoning and took advantage of the opportunity to protect themselves against some of the imminent financial harms by purchasing PMs.

1. The various enemy propaganda attacks must not be forgotten. They were not errors. It was not Hanlon’s Razor. They were attacks on your core liberties and identity. They must be catalogued by all of us, in some form or other, and remembered by us for conversations with our own circles as we try and bring our fellow human beings out of a state of hypnosis of whatever narrative attack has them captive at that moment.

2. A few items on how the 2020 election was rigged for Biden, and on other consequences of the mass importation of Somali Muslims. Note in particular this gentleman’s reference of going from a High trust to a no trust society. This is clearly one of the intended outcomes of all these policies in the past couple of decades. No faster way to dismantle a healthy civilization than move it from trust based, and therefore lateral and horizontal in transactions of all kinds, to a no trust, vertical society where the only transactions are between the state and its agencies and the creatures that are its subjects.

 

 

3. Trump launches ‘powerful and deadly’ Christmas Day strikes on ISIS targeting Christians in Nigeria: ‘Terrorist Scum’

President Trump announced Thursday that the US military hit ISIS terrorists in Nigeria targeting Christians with “numerous” deadly airstrikes.

“Tonight, at my direction as Commander in Chief, the United States launched a powerful and deadly strike against ISIS Terrorist Scum in Northwest Nigeria, who have been targeting and viciously killing, primarily, innocent Christians, at levels not seen for many years, and even Centuries!” Trump wrote on Truth Social.

“I have previously warned these Terrorists that if they did not stop the slaughtering of Christians, there would be hell to pay, and tonight, there was,” the president continued.

Thank you President Trump. And may Jihadis see many, many more Christmases like that every week of the year.For those of us paying attention, we are so grateful to see real justice enacted for a change.

In multiple cities, certainly Toronto, Montreal and I think Ottawa, Muslims and leftists have been targeting Indigo Book stores with disruptive protests inside and out, with the usual outrageous and untrue allegations. Apparently this happens every weekend, but was especially intense over Christmas. A search on Twitter for protests at Indigo Books will call up a lot of videos, and maybe add the search phrase, ‘Leviathan’ which at least won’t give views to the people doing the protests but instead the people opposing them.

5. These kinds of headlines are very common over this Christmas season. It barely qualifies as news. Sites like ours, Gates of Vienna, Jihad Watch, RAIR Foundation and many more. in various ways have been posting material like the following for years as data points to support a thesis. The thesis being that Islam is a threat doctrine, and those who follow the doctrine are a threat to Western Civilization and all religions and cultures that are not Islamic to the extent that those individual Muslims are adherent to that doctrine. Each of these sites take a different approach of course. It is more or less the 10 blind men describing an elephant. In more detail, in some cases it would be people who are under the threat of the state, to not to be too accurate or discuss any method that is true enough to be effective at combatting the subversion of our civilization by the left and jihadists. This is now a thought crime. In some, like Political Islam, it is to try and find a détente by distinguishing the jihadi component of Islam, and what Westerners might find acceptable as an equivalent religion practice to their own. We must of course, fight the political component of Islam. All of us are trying to pull the flaming remains of civilization out of the fire in any way we hope might work and to the extent that it is not going to have us thrown into gulags for the effort.

So increasingly, headlines like these don’t even feel like news. They are dog bites man at this point. But recognizing the trend is important anyway. That Muslims and leftists have managed to shut down public displays of Christian and Jewish religion and even national festivals for fear of jihadi attacks, all without naming the threat or the enemy. This is what actually matters. This is how you know the state imported it and funds it to do exactly what it is doing. In Australia, the state managed to make sure people who were a known threat had licences for many firearms and no armed response to their attack in Bondi Oz. But the PM did use the opportunity to talk about even more restrictions on firearms for law abiding actual citizens of Australia, and more speech and thought and face crimes. None of which will be used against Muslims of course, or every imam would be in jail already under existing laws. Same goes for the entire West for that matter.

BBC: Men guilty over Jewish community gun attack plot

Two men have been found guilty of planning a gun attack to cause “untold harm” to the Jewish community in Manchester.

Walid Saadaoui, 38, and Amar Hussein, 52, had a “visceral dislike” of Jewish people and arranged for guns to be smuggled into the UK as part of an “Isis-inspired plot”, Preston Crown Court heard.

They believed they were planning the attacks with a third man, known to them as Farouk, who they thought shared their extremist views but was actually an undercover operative.

Greater Manchester Police (GMP) said the main instigator Walid Saadaoui had plotted to carry out what “could potentially have been the deadliest terrorist attack in UK history”.

Walid Saadaoui, of Abram in Wigan, and Hussein, of no fixed abode, were found guilty of preparing acts of terrorism between 13 December 2023 and 9 May 2024.

A third man, Saadaoui’s younger brother Bilel Saadaoui, 36, has been convicted of failing to disclose information about acts of terrorism.

Walid Saadaoui aimed to smuggle four AK-47 assault rifles, two handguns and 900 rounds of ammunition into the UK. […]

Walid Saadaoui used one of his fake accounts to join the Facebook group of the Jewish Representative Council of Greater Manchester which contained details of a “March Against Antisemitism” held in the city centre on January 21 last year which thousands attended.

Days later he told Farouk: “Here in Manchester, we have the biggest Jewish community.

“God willing we will degrade and humiliate them (in the worst way possible), and hit them where it hurts.”

The BBC managed to mention “Islamic extremist views”. That is progress in as much as moving from narrative to reality is progress. It is however, not extremist. It is core Islamic doctrine. Anyone who has not read a proper translation of Koran, one by Robert Spencer, or the one he himself recommends, the Maududi translation (Available on Amazon.com not ,ca) and is uncertain of this should do so. Not take our word for it. Take theirs. Also the thousands of sermons given weekly around the world, many of which are posted here and thousands are at MEMRI.org as well as elsewhere. We saw a video of a protest outside an elderly care facility attached to the Ottawa Jewish Community centrea few days before Christmas where the prayer given before the jingoistic speech was quite revealing of the changing rhetoric of Muslims. They are becoming much more blunt about the ambitions and intentions of Islam in the West now.

Like this:

This site has a special focus on formal leftist tactics and strategies to destroy us all down to the roots. By formal, I mean communist intellectuals who actually devised formal tactics and set them into motion with calamitous effects and we can see now all around us like a barbed wire fence on our own thoughts.

One of these tactics by a Frankfurt School founder named Herbert Marcuse. He invented a pernicious device called, “Repressive Tolerance”. The linked 3 minute video explains it beautifully if you are not already familiar. But if you want to see it in action, compare the video above, to the video below.

Of course you can also see it with any of the 30 or so arrests for wrong-think every single day in the UK with the zero arrests for advocating genocide and jihad and revolution of Muslims and leftists, even in institutions like universities and mosques.

Thank you all for checking out this site. 

2026 is likely to be somewhat more chaotic than previous years for the reasons given in every post we ever did. The left and Islam is creating this chaos because it creates the conditions they want to reshape life for all of us under their terms.

We should be prepared for that. The chaos can also be an opportunity to oppose these changes.

 

Reader’s Links for December 26th, 2025

Each day at just after midnight Eastern, a post like this one is created for contributors and readers of this site to upload news links and video links on the issues that concern this site. Most notably, Islam and its effects on Classical Civilization, and various forms of leftism from Soviet era communism, to postmodernism and all the flavours of galloping statism and totalitarianism such as Nazism and Fascism which are increasingly snuffing out the classical liberalism which created our near, miraculous civilization the West has been building since the time of Socrates.

This document was written around the time this site was created, for those who wish to understand what this site is about. And while our understanding of the world and events has grown since then, the basic ideas remain sound and true to the purpose.

So please post all links, thoughts and ideas that you feel will benefit the readers of this site to the comments under this post each day. And thank you all for your contributions.

This is the new Samizdat. We must use it while we can.

For those interested, please check out https://vladtepesblog.substack.com/ as an another avenue of expression. The Substack is a different project in a sense. It is older videos that in the light of subsequent events, look different or of increased importance, Check it out now and again if you like.

Vice News clip in 7 parts on a North Korean Gulag in Siberia

This is just really great watching.

BTW: The Gulag Archipelago as an audio book is usually available free, or for pennies on Audible in 3 parts. It is a hell of an undertaking to listen through it. I only made it to maybe 15% into the second volume. But it was worth it. Great for dog walks or housework if you want to understand communism in practice.

One observation after watching parts 3 and 4. The Russians who were placed in Gulags knew they were prisoners and slaves, even if they had no idea why. Many if not most after all, where taken away to Gulags on a quota system and one town if memory serves had nearly half the population taken away.

But in the North Korean Gulags, the people’s sense of patriotism is what is keeping them in chains. At least according to the guard at the gate. “They do not run away because that would be a betrayal.” I think the model being built around the Anglosphere is more similar to that one. Loyalty to state narratives about global warming and anti-racism is what prevents people from rebelling pianist their own utter and total destruction, even as a memory of what we all once were.

In part VI you can feel how palpably afraid one of the NORK forest ‘workers’ are when asked an honest question about why he was there. He simply answered with what “he should not say”.

Granted we are not to scale anywhere near the amplitude of this kind of self censorship yet in Canada. But increasingly conversations between strangers contain more and more samizdat whether the speakers realize that formally or not.

Fear of consequence for saying things that are obviously true is becoming normalized in Canada, while the opposite is being normalized in the USA.

 

What happens in Medina doesn’t stay in Medina

The video below needs to be understood for what it is, and not how it might appear to people who grew up in free nation states, regardless of what they may be now.

When a sermon is given in the grand mosque of Medina, it is a reflection of Saudi policy. Nothing is ever said there, that is not in perfect alignment with national policy. One could say perhaps, doubly so for Friday sermons, the most important one of the week for Muslims.

Watching this excerpt from a Friday sermon of December 12, 2025 should make one question how seriously the Saudis are abut the Abraham Accords.
