What are we waiting for? A total relapse into a new Dark Age?
If so, it will be far more deadly than the last because it will have been midwifed by corporate media in collusion with corrupt government.
“When they came for the Jews,” declared Martin Niemöller, writing from a Nazi prison cell while awaiting death, “I was not a Jew, so I said nothing. When they came for the trade unionists, I was not a trade unionist, so I said nothing. When they came for the Catholics, I was not a Catholic, so I said nothing. When they came for me, there was no one left to say anything.”
All right. Maybe it is a bit over-the-top. Maybe, like the Buckley quip, it does not exactly apply. Nevertheless, in order to make a point, as Chesterton would say, it may be necessary now and again to exaggerate. And certainly, in light of what is happening in our country today, I’d say the point survives the exaggeration.
On nearly every front, therefore, we are facing civilizational collapse.
