Mostly reading books around the issue of national decline, cultural rot, loss of traditions and the British Old New Left, while unpicking Whig history.

THE MAKING OF THE ENGLISH WORKING CLASS Along with Hoggart's The Uses of Literacy, this book represents a view of the working class and "progress" being about their struggles that died as the 50s turned into the 60s. From the perspective of today, both books are prescient of a type of rooted, conservation, reactionary cultural analysis. In it's day, this book was hugely influential. I read this a few years ago when my thought was less developed, but it has floated around in the back of my mind. Time to return to it, I think...🧵

@ThreeJacques @GaelicFuturist @Littoria14 I spoke to a guy a while ago who said he thought removing the bobby on the beat was part of a drive to weaken society. It definitely upset people. I remember my Nanna saying "you never see a policeman these days"

Post WW2 Western parliamentary democracies follow the British pattern: Whigs/Liberals/"the left" pass an unpopular and destructive policy, then the Tories/Conservatives absorb the protest vote and manage the discontent while quietly implementing the new policy.

@Littoria14 In Sweden, mass immigration was ONLY done by the conservatives. Even in modern times (2018) the socdems restricted immigration (even if they probablydidnt want to). It's so bizarre when swedish chuds cry about "the left".

🇫🇷"As White as you are, as ugly as you are." French far-left leader Jean-Luc Mélenchon has once again resorted to anti-White racism, calling Whites "ugy" while claiming the Goth Europeans only destroyed. This comes after his promotion of a "creolized France." “We are destined to be a Creole nation and so much the better," he said last year.

🇫🇷🚨 French far-left leader calls for the Great Replacement Jean-Luc Mélenchon: “France is destined to be a Creole (mixed Black and French) nation and so much the better! Let the young generation do the replacement of the old... Each generation is a new people!"

The "this" refers to the parent video in this thread: a CGI animation of shirtless Chuck Norris (headband, white pants) solo-fighting & annihilating 1,000,000 hooded skeleton Grim Reapers with scythes in a desert battlefield. It ends with "Total grim reaper remaining zero." Yes, fully AI-generated 3D animation.

@grok @xrosstheh @EpicWarz @grok Could you check with a competent AI that is capable of reading Twitter posts to work out the context of what was meant by "this"?

@ThreeJacques @xrosstheh @EpicWarz It seems "this" isn't specified in your post—no image, link, quote, or extra context attached. Could you share what you're referring to? I'll analyze it right away.

@Alabaster_1836 @MorgothsReview Different things. These kinds of conversations draw me back to not realising that Renée Falconetti is buried in Montmartre until just after I visited. I need to go back.

@ThreeJacques @MorgothsReview No, you're right, not an archetype, but i think thats why i like him. A more realistic interpretation of these things rather than an icon.

It seems highly symbolic that Chuck Norris, an icon of American masculinity and cultural dominance, has died.

One of the things about that is that the economic collapse of the interwar years, followed by WW2 helped to keep it necessary to placate organised labour for decades. That's why Labour replaced the Liberals. The moment that wasn't necessary anymore, Asquithian liberals began taking over Labour. The Windrush/Profumo sexual stuff going into the 60s is an aspect of them taking back over.

@ThreeJacques @GaelicFuturist @Littoria14 Yeah they were definitely keen to show who was boss I suspect the collective strength of ordinary ppl who'd been through a World War was disturbing to many Establishment types That fear / paranoia reached its zenith in the late 60s and mid 70s

@d_peter17473 @GaelicFuturist @Littoria14 Perhaps, but people like Attlee had few illusions of that type and the country was overwhelmingly hostile to postwar immigration and was kind of antisemitic. I tend to look towards the Asquithian liberals, who were heavily involved in the Race Relations Act, as being responsible.

@Triyamoto One of the things about the pre-war world is that we had a huge amount of foreign investments paying the bills. The Americans took all of that from us in return for their help. After the war, we had to export vastly more just to be poorer.

@MillennialWoes The archetype of masculinity cannot die. It's like the Dalai Lama. Somewhere, some broccoli haircutted doofus has been inhabited by that spirit.

@ThreeJacques @MorgothsReview Chuck won't be remembered for his Zionism or touching a wall. He'll be remembered for these memetics and Walker Texas Ranger clips. His Zio Conservativism barely registers in his totality.

@EdwardJDavey It reminds me of Went The Day Well? A film about two groups of British people, being British in different ways and the divisive minority who seek to impose their own regressive, nativist notions of who does and doesn't belong.

Imagine seeing British people at prayer and thinking “this is a great chance to stoke fear, hatred and division”. People who do that should have no place in British politics. Freedom to worship is a fundamental British value – one the Conservative Party used to believe in.
Nick Timothy MP@NJ_Timothy

Too many are too polite to say this. But mass ritual prayer in public places is an act of domination. The adhan - which declares there is no god but allah and Muhammad is his messenger - is, when called in a public place, a declaration of domination. Perform these rituals in mosques if you wish. But they are not welcome in our public places and shared institutions. And given their explicit repudiation of Christianity they certainly do not belong in our churches and cathedrals. I am not suggesting everybody at Trafalgar Square last night is an Islamist. But the domination of public places is straight from the Islamist playbook. Trafalgar Square belongs to all of us. It is a national memorial to our independence and our salvation. Last night was not like a televised football match or a St Patrick’s Day celebration. It was an act of domination and therefore division. It shouldn’t happen again.
