~It is Christmas Week and I had not intended to set aside the daily horrors until Boxing Day at least, but this story is too telling to ignore. From The New York Post:
A Guatemalan migrant has been arrested for allegedly lighting a sleeping subway rider on fire in Brooklyn on Sunday morning — then watching as his innocent victim burned to death in what the police commissioner called "one of the most depraved crimes one person could possibly commit."
This poor woman is dead because she made the mistake of using public transit in the most famous and glittering city of the global hyperpower. We will publish her name as soon as it is made public. Possibly she is also a "Guatemalan migrant", or Haitian, or Somali or Afghan... I have not set foot in New York since the Covid lockdown, and doubt I ever will again. But the last time I was there I remember strolling up Fifth Avenue and thinking how bored I was by the default setting of every city west of, oh, Bratislava - the way everybody under fifty seems to come from somewhere else.
But diversity is not just boring, it's also, alas, murderous. Diversity is where nations go to die - and, as in Brooklyn on a Sunday morning, sometimes in the most horrible way.
Are you familiar with the phrase "the rules-based international order"? The wanker class use it all the time. From the Council of Europe just a few days ago:
The need for a renewed rules-based international order
From something called the Quincy Institute for Responsible Statecraft:
The Rules-Based Order Is in Crisis: What Comes Next?
From Nato:
Free societies and the rules-based international order need to be backed by credible transatlantic defence.

Falling asleep on the subway is not a good idea. I would be at DefCon 2.

We have swung from one extreme to the other.
Nazi Germany: There is one master race.
Modern West: All cultures are exactly equal.
Both concepts are poisonous. That’s obvious with the first one, less so with the second one.
