I read way too many comments. Sometimes I read the title of an article, breeze over the first couple paragraphs, and then read comments for 10 minutes. There used to be a lot of useful nuggets of anecdotal 'on the ground' stories in there. One of the best comments I ever read was on a highway of death youtube video where a vet that was there gave a brief description of what it was really like (ie, an absolute war crime committed by Americans in Iraq I). Now, it seems to be more and more NPC or AI generated nonsense like what the President's speech writers produce or the supposedly triggered individual responds with after not reading or watching the clip.
This is why I like this substack. The articles are worth a complete read and there are few comments with a high ratio of useful anecdotes.
So it would be more accurate to say that ≥ 95% are not fleeing warzones, as I did concede we were bringing in "our guys." It's really splitting hairs. Whether they're our terrorists, Ukrainians, or Africans arriving by raft, filming themselves burning their passports en-route, they're all being organized by Jewish charities, and housed in luxury hotels at taxpayer expense, while indigenous Europeans are left to die on the street.
Even Ukrainians who have all their expenses paid are leaving, as they are shocked to find the European countries they arrive in are so packed with Muslim immigrants- https://twitter.com/Channel4News/status/1618625171769761792 At any rate, Ukrainians aren't arriving by speedboat day after day, flanked by the Coast Guard for protection. Their numbers are inconsequential.
It's not just a problem for the City of London. Even Irish schoolgirls in small villages are no longer able to walk to school unaccosted by foreign men, and rape and murder statistics paint a vivid picture of the demographic shift. "Mohammed" is now the most popular boys name among newborns in a number of cities, and the most common name of rapists as well.
The assertion made was that the majority of migrants and "asylum seekers" were fleeing war zones. It is both factually incorrect, and a curious attempt at moral justification. If that's clinging to a "broken toilet seat" so be it, it is NOT based in reality. The VAST majority of men crossing the borders illegally both in Europe and the US are economic migrants. It is so absurd to suggest otherwise I don't even feel the need to provide citations. Only large scale hot war would produce the kinds of numbers we are seeing.
Anyway, by a lot of people's logic, this is a just situation, and the crimes of the white man are unique in both precedent and evil character.
I read in a conspiracy book from the 80ies/early nineties,either John Coleman or Jeff Cooper,that the PTB chose to overwhelm the white countries with an influx of culturally alien people.Its happening now.
Migration as a weapon has long been known.Lets not forget what the British did to the Fidjis in the 1870ies.Fidjis were not profitable enough workers,so 60 to 70 thousand Indians were shipped there,I think they never really got along with each other.Europe/USA will be the same.
Fijians still aren't particularly profitable workers but they make up for that in their joie de vivre. No doubt many were at home watching their national rugby team take on Wales in the world cup from 7am - 8.45am this morning. Most people that want to get ahead will have been at work for an hour by that time - but by the same token most people that want to 'get ahead' won't be living in Fiji.
There's little difference between rural Fijians and Indians insofar as the rhythm of farm life and the importance of extended family goes. There's also little to choose between the urban Fijian and Indians either - both are materially minded but Indians are better at that in greater numbers.
Most have moved on from the divisive nature of the coups in 1987 and if Indians were to leave Fiji en masse it would merely mean that any politicians who thrive on divide and rule might highlight differences between various Fijian tribes, rather than differences between Fijians and Indians.
Ah, Linh, for whatever our disagreements may be, when I agree with you it is wholehearted. A lovely description of life in the North American sandwich, whether northern loaf or the bologna in the middle.
You award us Eastern Europeans only small odds of prevailing against such bullshit. You may be right, but that's where my money is as the wheel spins.
"Since the US is a roiling sea of bullshit, a bobbing citizen is liable to latch on to anything, a broken toilet seat, a half digested book or just some shitty slogan. Armed with such “knowledge,” he’ll barf it up at every opportunity."
Americans are a people at war with reality. I suppose it could be some fatal flaws in the genes or culture going back to the colonies (back to that later), or corruption that seeped in over time and got powerful enough to rot the entire country. Regardless, the hollowness of the culture is reflected in everything and is impossible to get away from short of leaving the country. The most frustrating part of life in the US for me is not being able to talk to anybody about anything that matters. Americans are in denial about just how bad things have gotten and revile anyone who points it out. If communication is not possible, then what can be changed except maybe some superficial aspects of your life situation? The credo here is that you are always the problem, and American society is always good by default. Whatever criticisms you have of it, it's just how things are, and hey, life isn't fair anyway. But at the same time, this is a "free country" and you can do whatever you want. (Only really true in a consumerist sense - you're free to buy all the slop and toys you can afford. Want a deep friendship? What the hell's wrong with you?) The sense of futility is ubiquitous.
Linh, have you ever read any Morris Berman? In his Dark Age America books, he posits that the superficial culture in the US has been a feature not a bug all the way back from colonial times, and that this was always going to end up a land of hustling and hype without substance. It was the first time I encountered that perspective, and it is compelling. It's striking to think that could be the case because most people will pine away for the "good ol' days" as opposed to seeing how the present is connected to the past. Times weren't always this dire, but I can see how the fatal flaws in the culture over time have led up to the sorry state we're in today.
Morris Berman is a very smart and interesting writer. As a Jew, though, he sees no Jewish role in the dumbing down and vulgarization of America. That's a serious flaw in his avowed thinking.
He also writes about violent crime increasing in the US since his youth while conveniently leaving out things like demographics and crime stats. Definitely a writer to take with a grain of salt, but I do find some of his positions compelling. He talks a lot more about the what and leaves out too much of the why.
I always enjoy reading your posts, Linh, even if a good portion of them are incomprehensible to me. Gives me something to try to figure out what you are talking about. There's a lot of what is going on today that I am missing due to spending much time on a limited amount of subjects, mostly what the elites are up to and trying to figure out what they are going to do next,
P.S. That "Writes Elaine's Substack" is incorrect. I had inadvertently clicked on the place to set up a Substack, then got stuck with the result. I did go, yesterday, and clicked on the place to delete it, but looks as though I'm still stuck with a Substack. Unfortunately, I am getting a lot of Followers.
I do have a lot of writers that I support, and only want to be a supporter.
Nae bother Elaine, i get people folloqing me and i have never made a substack post, only a few comments now and then. I wonder what they are following, maybe the are some obscure substack cargo cult praying for some intelligent words to drip from my pen some day. Dream on.
Thank you, Isha. That explains part of the problem--people following comments--so don't have to have a Substack Post. Maybe they become followers if they like someone's comment?
i watched the young canadian's youtube - you have summarized the message - but watching the video made it more poignant - here is a young woman, good looking, a college graduate, chinese by ancestry and appearance, north american in speech and presumably thinking patterns, now traveling in east asia - her journey of a thousand miles has begun, clearly, but who knows where it will go next? i wish her well, but i don't see myself as having advice to give her
jewish comedians have or did have brief jokes - "one liners", they were called - henny youngman might say - "how's my wife? compared to what"
how's canada - specifically british columbia and toronto, it seems - in 2023? compared to what?
a comment at the youtube says "everybody needs someone or something to love, something to do, and something to look forward to"
"Gigolo Joe" probably reads Miles Mathis, who argues that nukes don't exist, that the top Nazis were Jews, among other things. Ludicrous? Perhaps, but he writes well and is smarter than your average conspiracy theorist. I kinda like him, even if rarely taking him completely seriously.
About the war refugees, I think Gigolo's partly right. Most of the Ukrainian current refugees came from Kiev or other Western parts where there's little combat (perhaps occasional missiles or drones). They are escaping conscription (if they managed to flee before) or because they are women with children and moving to Germany is an upgrade (they will hook up with other men and won't return even if the war ends). As for Syria, lots of people threw their passport away at the border and said they were from "Syria", so who knows how many real war refugees from that country are there among them? A minority, I'd wage.
"Rotting Teeth" sounds like a woman from the description, although, who knows "what is a woman" these days, right? It could also be an AI bot, I don't know. But I think it's a woman.
Miles Mathis dazzles at first w/ his erudition. But after reading a few different articles, I came to the conclusion that he isn't a real polymath. Nobody is that smart in that many different areas. Why has no one ever seen him, even in a video? Much more likely he's a team effort, a team of spooks.
I give him a pass on no-nukes, i.e. no weaponized nukes. A growing number of skeptics have debunked Hiroshima/Nagasaki as staged events promoting the ultimate scary bomb. It was really a typical carpet bombing result w/ incendiaries. Lots of doctored film footage at Lookout Mt following from the Pacific atolls.
Where I jumped ship from the good ship Mathis was his JFK assassination scenario. He has JFK in on the whole thing and escaping harm via a bathroom break and replacement by a sacrificial double. Zero evidence for that.
I first read it thinking she was a man. But then I thought how bizarre that was, given the sex repulsions, unless he was some sort of closet gay. I think at first glance the "wombman" word use initially set me on that path. Then I realized much more likely was a woman who figured the word woman derived from womb man and the person was really a woman, after all. And perhaps the rotten teeth moniker was the actual deformity referred to. Lots of possible clues, here. Don't know why I fixated on that, Linh's post was actually important for a lot of other reasons.

Possibly. Or are hopping to be followed in return, to attract followers.
Linh, your writing needs to be read by a much larger audience. Your BS sensor is stellar.
You're right on target, again, Linh. Keep up the fine work. I'm guessing you're feeling much better these days, and that's great 🤜🤛
Awesome pics thanks.
