Why Christianity is so hard to get rid of!

If you wonder why Jews rule over us in the West, just watch this video, and you will realise the reason is Christianity

The reason why Christianity is so hard for whites to get rid of is because we're both gullible and arrogant. Gullible enough to get sucked into Christianity, but too arrogant to admit we've been sucked in. A perfect combo for spiritual enslavement.

The entire framing of the NSDAP as "far-right" is purely Bolshevik, pushed after WWII to retcon the NSDAP into being as different to the Bolsheviks as possible.

How Julius Caesar would have dealt with the gangs in NZ (from Grok): Likely approach to NZ-style gangs Intelligence and targeted force first. Caesar mapped enemy strengths quickly. He would have identified chapter leadership, drug supply lines, and rivalries (especially Mongrel Mob vs Black Power), then used concentrated force—legions or equivalent special units—against key pads and leaders. Resistance would be crushed; the goal was deterrence, not endless occupation. Modern equivalents would be coordinated raids, asset seizure, and disruption of the meth/extortion economy that sustains them.⁠ Divide and co-opt. Rival gangs are already mutually hostile. Caesar routinely played factions against each other. He would offer amnesty, land, status, or service (military, public works, or civic roles) to those who renounced the patch and handed over rivals or suppliers. Roman practice after conquest often integrated former enemies who proved useful; hardcore holdouts and leaders were eliminated or exiled as examples. Exemplary punishment for the irreconcilable. For the pirate-style criminal core (violent offenders, traffickers who refused terms), Roman norms favoured execution, crucifixion, or forced labour rather than long-term incarceration. Caesar was not sentimental about bandits. Public, visible consequences were meant to break recruitment. Structural measures. He built roads, colonies, and economic opportunities that reduced the pool of idle young men available for gangs. In a modern setting this would translate to aggressive employment, housing, and social integration programmes after the coercive phase, not instead of it. Purely welfare-style approaches without enforcement would have struck him as weakness.
