Westerners must give up on this idea of "universal human rights". The only rights due to citizens are the rights they earn through their service to the society.

But who will decide and police these rights?

Good question but why use the word "police" ..? There should be no need to police something that is self evident. The yanks might have fecked everything else up but they were right about the self-evident bit. What they got wrong was that the self-evidence was particular to a given culture which is why multi-culturalism does not work. These self-evident truths are different to different people. I know that is inconvenient to the Kumbaya Pete Seeger crew but..there you go. That's what true diversity means. Accepting differences.

No, that is exactly the opposite of what I am saying. That scene sums up perfectly the whole problem. You just want debates where you can be the hero that rides in and tells everybody that things will be ok if we just respect the oppressed minority.

I am telling you the repressed minority is infact part of a towelheaded, fanatic majority that wants to wipe you out and I would like to see Russian military footage of him being vapourized. Just for shits and grins

"Do you think he is bringing his children up to be tolerant of our children ?
"No"
"He's telling us we've got the devil in us etc etc"


Its not what we think of them, it is what they think of us.

An interesting article here about the decline of Western democracy.
https://www.opendemocracy.net/ernesto-gallo-giovanni-biava/western-democracy-decline-and

A précis of the decline is that people have stopped trusting the economy and the faith in markets. The glaring anomaly of monetary union without political union has become obvious. Ineffective, weak western leadership has led to people looking toward the more decisive leadership model of Russia and to wonder about the gap in society left by the abandonment or organized religion (especially in the face of the devout Islam).

They then propose solutions which, unfortunately, lean toward the usual , kumbaya nonsense however "no party leader has so far been able to grasp and articulate the sensibility of battered citizens" certainly rings a bell. However, they then appoint Pope Francis to this role  which is bollocks. At the precise time that a pope is needed to restore the churches reputation and reassert the confidence of the faithful he seems more interested in spouting populist, leftist statements. Stick to poping Francis, we have enough people telling us we need to "do more" for xyz.

They then propose more transnational politics and a more active UN which seems to me to be impractical and will just amplify the EU flaws to a worldwide scale.

I think we need a reset of western democracy to the Chinese model followed by a gradual, slow restoration of "democracy". The key point is to keep the bed wetters away from power so that they don't sell us all up the river again and always keep a close eye on them thereafter.

Yeah Francis! Keep that whole Christianity sh1t out of your message.

And who are all these people  casting longing eyes towards Putin and the Chinese and waiting  for the return to "family values "  (still waiting  on a definition  for that!)
