Stand Up For Life

 

Evening Prayer (1928 BCP, thank you very much) is said, birds sing, a dog rests after a hard day of collecting welfare, and Fr. Louis teaches something Mexican in the church hall. And all seems well with the world, at least from this rural Texan point of view.

You wouldn't know, from this vantage point, that 10 states in the Union allow abortion up to birth. You might be excused for glossing over the fact that our country's 39 Trillion Dollars in debt and that Western Europe's committing demographic suicide. They've apparently lost the will to live, along with Massachusetts, Minnesota, Alaska, Colorado Maryland, Michigan, New Jersey, New Mexico, Oregon, and Vermont.

You'll note all these are Democrat strongholds. Why, we ask, does the Left hate life to the extent of killing babies, which is exactly what we're talking about. Ostensibly it's all about women's freedom and autonomy; to be a factor in the means of production and so achieve meaning and happiness. Babies stand in the way of that, obviously, so get rid of them and be free. In other words, I want a career and cash and having a baby doesn't fit in with that, so I'll choose wymxns healthcare.

Or something like that, but there's a deeper reason or animus behind this demonic slaughter. Nihilism. The Left hates Western culture and its Faith, values, and aesthetic; it hates Western civilization itself. As Roger Scruton reminds us, for every value or achievement our forbears thought valuable there's a university course deconstructing the same.

Destroying the family and convincing women to go against their most natural instinct, to bear and raise children, in fact to kill them, is perhaps the most heinous of crimes. Their end is destruction and there will be a reckoning. Divine justice demands it.

You Satan

In the meanwhile, Massachusetts Governor  Maura Healey signed literal infanticide into law as her female cheerleaders clapped and gushed, a scene from Hell. At the time of writing, neither the Pope nor any member of the US Conference of Catholic Bishops have excommunicated Maura, a self-proclaimed Catholic. You can, apparently, kill babies unrepentantly and still receive Holy Communion. Burning coals spring to mind, there will be a Reckoning.

Marking Time

Busy here, because people are sick and some are dying. May God send his angels to bear them up to paradise. In lieu of comment on the heinous way we live now, here's a tune, old but gold:

What a great song. In the meanwhile, the Left's hollowed out the Western Church, judiciary, press, academia, and every other institution you care to name. Well done, Cultural Marxists in your "long march through the institutions." But they've got a problem.

The people, you and I, all those people who don't agree with neo-Maoist nihilism, aren't on board, and we're the majority, by far. We don't want their Khmer Rouge utopia, we reject their godless revolutionary project.

maybe the best patch ever

Problem. Solution? Import millions of votes from the post colonial world and smash that white working class ballot box into oblivion, all in the name of tolerance. Clever, eh?

Ain't it, but we've seen through their cunning little ruse here in the States. Europe/UK needs to catch up and it will. Remember this, punters, everything the Left does produces the exact opposite of its intended result.

Your Pal,

Investment Strategy

 

Here at the Compound we're kicking back with cold white wine, it's like ICE and Texas in July, and considering investment strategies. Guess what, we've decided on WOTF (Wake Of The Flood) index funds. Call it a hedge if you like, call it sound common sense based on the technicals, the underlying real world value of the thing. Here, check out the prospectus:

Wake of the Flood. What will that look like when when the tide runs out on the way we live now? Pretty messy unless you're long WOTF. In related news, you may have noticed we're at war with Iran again. How many of you voted for that?

Cheers,

LSP
