Le Vietnam deviendra communiste, mais il s’agira d’un communisme asiatique, tout comme il existe déjà un communisme chinois. À chacun son communisme!
Mdr, voire même mdr de chez mdr.

Reminder: this is the only version recognized by the Heinlein estate as a good adaptation.
I'm coming around on the idea that class is a more real identity than ethnicity. Justifying it in the medieval/early modern east european set up where German meant being a city dweller.
I simply have little in common with the modern prole regardless of ancestry.
I just need everyone to know, there is now a little man in dailyoffice.online/

Just not true. The Romans made one of the entire city. It was hung in the Roman senate tax offices. We've been finding pieces of it for centuries.
Leonardo da Vinci created the first ever
"satellite view" map in 1502 of Imola, Italy.
He did this by manually measuring the angles and distance of every corner on every building in the city.
Readers added context they thought people might want to know
Leonardo’s 1502 Imola map was not the first overhead city plan. The Forma Urbis of Rome, made in 203–211 CE, mapped every building’s ground plan at 1:240 scale. Leonardo’s work was a surveyed Renaissance plan, but calling it the first “satellite view” is inaccurate.

Ebenezer Church, New South Wales.
It is the oldest still-in-use church building in Australia, built in the early 19th Century. 🇦🇺

Excellent article by Paul Facey. The Anglican and Catholic churches in this country have sold out the Australian people and are up to their eyeballs in the immigration ponzi scheme. Why go after the lost sheep when you can replace him? We won't forget.
"Growing up in Western Sydney in the early 2000s, my neighbourhood was genuinely Australian. Almost all my street friends were of multi-generational Australian stock, and later on one Australian-born Indian. The same was true of my soccer club and church. Even outside of church, almost everybody in my life shared the same Christian faith, that which formed Australia’s culture from the beginning.
Fast forward almost two decades, and living only a few minutes’ drive from where I grew up, it is the opposite. I know almost none of my neighbours. Almost all of them are recent arrivals from various parts of India. We have nothing in common: not ancestry, culture, religion, and barely even the English language. The same is true for the wider town. Where I once had a strong community, formed of common blood and faith, I now have only strangers. This commonality remains solely with people far outside of my town, even as far as regional NSW, where I like to visit just to feel like I am in Australia again, like I am truly home and with my own people.
But according to Archbishop Kanishka Raffel—my Archbishop, as I am an Anglican—and Rabbi Benjamin Elton, this destruction of kinship and community built over two centuries is not the problem. In fact, it is those who complain about it that are the problem. The Archbishop & Rabbi recently co-authored a piece called ‘A plea to keep faith in our cultural diversity’; a title that is fascinating in itself, which I will address later. In it, they attack Pauline Hanson’s recent call to restore a 'monoculture' in Australia, providing a three-fold response: that Australia was never a 'monoculture,' that the problem is not multiculturalism as such, only certain applications thereof, and that Judeo-Christian teaching requires us to 'love the stranger.'
Being a young Australian man at the receiving end of replacement migration, the article read to me like a prolonged insult, especially as it came from my own episcopal head. Why this is so will be made clear as I dispatch of the arguments." @TheOtherPaul2

A very happy Trafalgar Day to all our followers and friends. The Prayer Book would, of course, have been used throughout Nelson’s fleet and the “Prayers to be used at Sea” would, no doubt, have been recited on the eve of battle.

What’s happening in Paris and Milan is no surprise to anyone who has spent time around young people in Europe during the 2010s:
Virtually all of them were working on their 4th masters degree in social welfare, were unmarried, attended communist dinners every night, and regularly participated in riots.
Now the economy is suddenly transforming and they have nothing to show for it.

Rabbis have a more life-affirming message for young men than the church does lmfao
Imagine buying a game and the first screen says:
“Congratulations. You won.”
You’d ask for your money back.
You wanted the challenge.
You wanted to figure it out.
Maybe the struggle isn’t ruining the game.
Maybe the struggle is the game.

One of the great innovations of English Common Law is the standard of ‘reasonableness’ - can you make reasonable context-dependent assessments? If so we will trust you enough to trust your discretion. Reasonableness now being replaced by lists of criteria is a major cultural loss
The disenfranchisment and replacement of natives is the position held by every boomer and cleric in the Church here, regardless of how trad they are.
Utterly depressing.
had the privilege of seeing this today
wom-eh reads like if a time traveller had to receate foid in 2010
