An irrecoverable calamity?

In the second place, a collapse in culture, even a very severe collapse such as we are facing in the West, is recoverable as long as you forbid immigration and insist on restoring yourself with your own progeny and efforts. The Japanese have taken this route, and there is no reason to doubt that after this demographic winter passes their islands will remain theirs.

For irrecoverable calamity, you have to let in the hostile and fertile hordes at the moment of your worst cultural weakness and lowest fertility. This is an elite decision, not one made by multitudes of individuals at the family level.[1]
Tiberge responds:
The Unanswered Question remains "Why did this cultural collapse happen?" We know that it did, we know that the leaders of Western countries completely lacked foresight, insight, patriotism and concern for their national identities. We know they were willing to open wide the borders of their countries to allow in the hordes. We know all of this, and much more. But we don't know WHY. If the West hates itself, where did this self-hatred come from, what is its source? Was it the shattering events of '68 that brought about an irreversible rupture with the past? Yes it was, but we still don't know why the leaders and the people let it happen. We went to bed one night with our traditions still strong, our values seemingly imperishable. And we woke up in a totally transformed world, the world upside down as some call it.
Mark Steyn nails the reason with this:
So they [refugees from Islam and sub-Saharan Africa] will look elsewhere — to countries with great infrastructure, generous welfare, and among the aging natives a kind of civilizational wasting disease so advanced that, as a point of moral virtue, they are incapable of enforcing their borders.

The nations that built the modern world decided to outsource their future. In simple economic terms, the arithmetic is stark: In America, the boomers have condemned their shrunken progeny to the certainty of poorer, meaner lives.[2]
You can speculate about White Guilt and the influence of Gnosticism and Masons all you want but The Great Mystery of Western surrender to the third world squalor, crime, and backwardness isn't anything complex. Westerners just want a low-cost, comfortable retirement and cheap labor regardless of the consequences.
