We all really need to come to terms fast with the fact that a cultural revolution is brewing in America and the West in general, and that our world is blissfully oblivious to it and criminally unprepared.

qt for attention, thread incoming.

We never have experienced a cultural revolution before, so despite the numerous warnings of history and the unprecedented amount of knowledge at our disposal, society is unable to identify the threat.

The revolutionaries are out there in the open. Their intentions are very clear, and broadcasted everywhere with the active support of our criminal intelligence-run media apparatus.

They have western civilization as their target, and the general direction is to conquer it and loot every single asset it has. They will not stop until they have won or been stopped by force.

There is no finding a reasonable agreement with a cultural revolution.

Yet social conditioning, peer pressure and the extra-thin vernacular of good intentions the revolutionaries are displaying are still enough to convince the majority that they are not seeing what they are seeing. That all the fuckery we are witnessing is normal. Progress, even.

Notice that the complicity of the media apparatus is largely spontaneous - especially at the grunt level. For most people in there it's no grand conspiracy: they simply smell where the power lies, and preemptively side with it.

Which means that the revolutionaries already are sitting upon a meaningful amount of power. More than enough in any case to single out and take down their targets without fear of retribution.

It is very difficult to prevent a cultural revolution from happening once it reaches this stage, simply because nobody is allowed to publicly notice it is happening any longer.

But cultural revolutions are very real.

While the term cultural revolution commonly refers to the Maoist era, at least three major iterations occurred in the last century, in Russia, China and Cambodia.

They all were wildly successful, and to date none of these countries have entirely recovered from it, decades after the revolutionaries have been officially replaced by a stable government.

Today Russia is largely a crippled society, a shadow of its former self, with many men being alcoholics and many women whoring away, where making a good living is difficult:

If you are a Russian today, chances are you have lost quite a few close friends and family relatives along the way. All Putin and his government have been able to do is to preserve sovereignty and the country's key assets.

This is arguably not a bad result given the circumstances, but I am fairly certain Putin and the Russians long for a higher destiny for their country than the current struggle.

"As of 2013, the average life expectancy in Russia was 65.1 years for males and 76.5 years for females. The average Russian life expectancy of 71.6 years at birth is nearly 5 years shorter than the overall average figure for the European Union, or the United States."

"The biggest factor contributing to this relatively low life expectancy for males is a high mortality rate among working-age males from preventable causes (e.g., alcohol poisoning, stress, smoking, traffic accidents, violent crimes)."

"Mortality among Russian men rose by 60% since 1991, four to five times higher than European average."

You might like Russia (I do) but their current issues are a feature, not a bug. It is a society still dealing with the consequences of a 100 year-old cultural revolution.

China is officially referred to as the mighty, fearsome dragon that is going to take over the world because of its official competition with the US for dominance.

But while enabling basic economics inevitably produced results in this country of 1.3 billion people, China is a society where trust is primarily generated through a fearsome surveillance apparatus.

The cultural revolution produced a mindset where most people to this day have scarily high time preference and think mainly of business as immediate cash grabbing.

Most Westerners are not prepared to deal with the cynicism and short-term, greedy mindset of the average Chinese. They will increasingly have to, and they will not like it.

The damage done to Chinese society by the Great Leap Forward is extremely concrete, durable, and its consequences are immediately obvious for external eyes.

I can't end that bit on cultural revolutions without mentioning the legendary Khmer rouge. While Cambodia was not as prominent a society as China or Russia, the effect there was no less severe.

Pol Pot and its buddies openly took inspiration from the Chinese cultural revolution, and they were particularly innovative in finding ways to bring Cambodian society to its knees to satisfy their greed and blood lust.

While the Khmer rouge are no longer in power, Cambodia remains to this day a backward country, trailing the thriving economies of South-East Asia.

Cultural revolutions literally destroy societies, leaving lasting effects long after they are done looting whatever was up for grabs. Now do note, these countries had a more powerful and prosperous society to look up to when they started their road to recovery.

It's also notable that in all instances, these revolutions were frantically lauded by our media - all of them, well after evidence of the associated atrocities went mainstream. And in the case of the Russian revolution at least, enabled by our financiers.

This is what is currently brewing in the West. The same type of people who have destroyed Russia and China, carried by an unwavering belief in their own holiness, are now going after our entire civilization.

They're laughable clowns, aren't they? Well you shouldn't laugh. These brainwashed kids are a powerful weapon. They will absolutely destroy you and your life, given the opportunity.

Everything you felt was wrong during your childhood and your early years boils down to this: a cultural revolution is in the making, undermining society from the inside, and it is now about to unfold.

China and Russia too didn't see it coming until the revolutionaries controlled the levers of powers and resistance was futile. They may also be able to claim that they weren't aware of what it was about to entice.

The reality is that the people we commonly refer to as "normies" can barely hold it together most of the time. Being lost themselves, they have a very hard time seeing through the constant obfuscation.

Society is already unable to lift them high enough for them to have something effective to oppose to the fanatical mindset of the revolutionaries. This is why cultural revolutions succeed.

Normies, mostly, will try to accomodate. This is what they do. So once you've got them weakened enough, which is the case in the West today, you may go on to the next step and bid for power itself.

The program of a cultural revolution is enslavement and genocide. Enslavement if you surrender, genocide if you resist.

Again, there is no negotiating with revolutionaries. You may negotiate with people who are going to enable them before they happen. But once they happen, democracy and debate are of no use.

Look at the radical wing of the Democratic Party in the US and tell me if you think these are people who can be reasoned with if, God forbid, they ever found themselves in command of the country, with all nominal checks and balance officially gone.

This is the difference between revolutionaries and the standard, educated political opponents you expect to be up against in our societies. The revolutionaries have faith in their cause, and they will not negotiate. They will just seize power, and use it.

The only way they can be stopped is by strength. Once you deal with a revolution, all you can do is impose your strength on the enemy before it imposes its strength on you. There is no other way of stopping it.

You may be able to stop a revolution. You might be able to replace it with your own revolution, and seize power to use it for other means after you were able to cast the other revolutionaries aside.

What you cannot do is wish it away through polite debate and 1000 words op-eds.

What is coming is going to be a strength contest, not a Socratic discussion on who is right and has the right answers for society. We are past that stage now.

Can we win it? Time is running short.
