Boiling the frog.

You all know the concept of boiling the frog. You start it off in cold water and keep heating the water till it boils. In the early stages it's comfy for the frog.

At least the frog is not blessed with the average IQ of a certified humanoid intellectual, namely, enough intelligence to just barely master the concept of a pop-top soda can. The frog's failure to see what's coming is thus excusable. Is ours?

At least 2.2 million migrants will arrive in the rich world every year from now until 2050, the United Nations said yesterday.

Britain's population will rise from 60 million to approaching 69 million by 2050 – almost entirely because of immigration. The latest figures from the UN's population division predict a global upheaval without parallel in human history over the next four decades. ^[1]

Why the above graphic is not an instant wakeup call for Westerners is a matter of extreme wonder to your reporter.


Voxceltica has an interesting view on why ". . . the [European] public [not as clueless as some might think] seem loath to take the radical step of turning in large numbers to nationalist parties who better represent their interests."^[2] Q.v.

He then remarks on George Orwell's description of "the new aristocracy":

A brilliant and prophetic description of the class of mediocrities that generate and uphold all of the destructive follies of modern life in Western democracies, these people are the defenders of human rights, social justice, radical tolerance, and the sexual exploitation of children for commercial purposes. These are the people who prevent societies natural instincts from dealing with paedophiles, violent muggers and the mass replacement of indigenes by foreigners.^[3]

Thus, the problem of ethnic inundation by immigrants is only one piece of the puzzle. The problem is more fundamental -- Why are Western rulers so perilously unwilling to deal with stark realities?

We dislike barnyard imagery but one instance is appropriate here: Western elites simply don't have the sense to pour ___ out of a boot. 12,000,000 and change illegals flooded the heartlands of the U.S. since the last $%#@!! amnesty and there are actually intelligent people who publicly state the latest invaders should be given "a path to citizenship." How about "path to the border"?

As the witticism circulating on the internet aptly notes, "If you're too open minded your brains will fall out." Out and into the pickle jar for pickup by Marty Feldman.

We don't feel like making this post the definitive statement of the ills of West. Suffice it to close for now with "Identification of your oppressor is the first step towards liberation."^[4]

And the thought that it a tragedy of monumental proportions that England, the land of wit and gentility and our precious legal heritage is now fixated by pathetic little scrimmages over the role that a collection of jumbled, vicious desert ramblings should play in English society. In this there is nothing witty, sensible, beautiful, endearing, or uplifting.

It is, however, instructive and, well, . . . sordid.
