UK readers of a certain age will remember a particularly dire soap opera with wobbly sets that went by the name of Crossroads, it was set in a motel and one of the central characters was a retarded handyman called Benny.
Brummie comic Carrot summed up the Benny problem perfectly, is he really retarded? Because, if he isn’t, he’s a bloody good actor. And what’s a bloody good actor doing on Crossroads?
Cue laughter, and of course on a deeper level it’s a bit like the Holmesian question about the mystery of the dog that did not bark, simple logic should not be dismissed as a mere side issue simply because the narrative cannot adequately explain it.
User Guest asks what I would do to fix the UK.
First we have to establish what happened, and we can all see exactly what happened, people who liked pissing in rivers rose to ever greater power and moved further and further upstream.
Being made King would be insufficient to remedy it, alien god king with extraordinary technology and powers might just about do it, targeted specific genocide on a scale never before seen, but like the dog that did not bark and Benny’s alleged acting prowess, maybe that isn’t the question we should be asking.
Maybe we should first be asking if there is a problem that needs fixing, and, if there is, is the fix already in the works?
Clearly there is a problem, the “xxxxxists”, doesn’t matter what flavour, they are all the same, got in to the universities and then upper schools and then lower schools, and started poisoning entire generation with their crap, pissing in the stream of time upstream from everyone else, fast forwards 50 years, look back, and recognize that they only got to piss in the stream because everyone else was ready to let them, and lots downstream grew to like the taste, it was all entirely voluntary.
So not only can we say that clearly there was a problem, clearly there was also an ecological niche just waiting for such a problem to come along and take root, and it doesn’t matter which one, sooner or later some infection will find the laceration and crawl in and make itself at home.
So we have identified that there is a problem, and that a problem was pretty much inevitable, we can avoid distraction by trying to determine why it was inevitable and what caused the laceration because it doesn’t change anything.
So the second part of the question becomes relevant, is the fix already in the works?
Again, if we look, the answer is a resounding yes.
=================================
The reason peoples the world over “elect” raging tyrants to rule over them is very very rarely that they are fucking insane and clueless, quite often the reason they choose the tyrant, and Stalin is a great example, (hilarity ensues, superman is the man of steel, but Stalin was literally the original man of steel) was not because they thought he was all cute and cuddly, but because he could probably only kill 10 million or so, the alternative would be much worse.
The “fix” for the current ailments of the UK, and elsewhere, are already baked in, the UK has been dead since around 1970, no new infrastructure, now new industry, old infrastructure being extended and extended and extended, and literally almost nobody either knows how fragile it all is, or how to repair any of it.
The fact is that simply stopping all shipping to the UK would do what no-one in the history of the human world has ever been able to do, it would utterly destroy us as a nation, in WW2 the convoys kept us going, barely, with extreme rationing, and it was in all honesty still a losing battle, we were not holding level.
Just because there is no kreigsmarine or luftwaffe sinking everything that floats doesn’t mean we are any less dependent, or in any more of a war, today.
Take a step back and actually look, I’ll grant you the hypothetical multi billion high speed rail link plans to the north, plans mind you, I’ll grant you the channel tunnel and rail link, but it was private money and debt funded, fuck all to do with the UK really so it doesn’t really count, and there is the DLR or dicklands light railway (sic) a 24 mile metro line in Londinium.
There basically isn’t anything else, you go back to the great railways builders like stephenson and brunel, and you go back to the half assed nationalisation and rebuilding post war, and you go back to dr beeching and his cuts, and there basically isn’t anything else.
New severn bridge? Private money and french.
New nuke power stations? Private money and french / chinese?
Do you not see that everything is in reality in the state that we used to laugh at the USSR for being in, old jokes about aeroflot and all that, but, the joke is now on us.
Twenty years ago I read about the fast breeder reactor at Dounrey, some of the guys working on it said we will never see the like again, because we could no longer build it today, we simply did not have the skills or material in the UK, some will say British Steel still makes and exports railway track, except it was owned by Tata until Tata sold it to the secretive Meyohas brothers, of Lehman fame, or should that be infamy, they are french nationals so it ain’t a british business any more, and in any even there is only really the scunthorpe plant left, and that is limited in the range of steels it can produce.
====================================
The fact is there are some small independent high tech engineering companies left, I should know, I own and run a very small one myself, but 95% of the kit we use is ultimately manufactured somewhere overseas, and if you put us all together as a “war effort” you’d better hope we aren’t taking on anything more formidable than Andorra, because we’d be outclassed PDQ.
95% of the work we do is either local or specialist, eg small potatoes that the big boys can’t be bothered to do, some of it is interesting and cutting edge for all that, but still, we’d all sink without trace in Shenzhen etc.
So the fix is in, and it is almost certainly going to be more brutal than anything some English Adolf could come up with, because the only real alternative is an English Adolf, and being brutally honest with you, none of these cunts or their offspring or DNA deserve to get off that lightly.
The bottom line here is you do not need to look for a “fix” unless you subscribe to the belief than human beings are a law entirely unto themselves, and completely removed from natural forces and reactions etc, and if you do believe that, you probably a part of the problem, because you are the one resisting nature, your own innate human nature, and that isn’t going to end well.
It’s been “Bash Musk Month” here, but the fact is he does make a great example, I remember paypal when it came out, it sucked, and as time passed it sucked more and more and more, but it was ok because it was always strategically placed to not be a bank and so not have to abide by banking rules, I never used paypal, and if it was all you took you never got my business or my money, and if anything the more time passes and the more paypal sucks the more justified I feel in that… and this is the guy behind Tesla and SpaceX, you think the leopard changed its spots?
The guy made billions by sucking people into a bait and switch scheme that promised one thing and delivered less and less of that thing over time, because all that shit was just marketing to get momentum and market share, at base it was still a bait and switch scheme.
Same as fleabay, same as amazombie, the sole purpose is to bait and switch your way to market dominance and treat the end user as the resource that you control and exploit that power over the seller side, and then you fuck everyone over even more.
Complain all you want about the 800 zero hours minimum wage contracts that everyone always gets let go from before they can legally be classed as permanent, then hired back a few weeks later,rejoice all you want in your 50 permanent associate fuck all wage but at least you can lord it over these other fucks role as a “manager” telling the 800 that no matter what they do, what you need is 10% more or they are disciplined.
Kuka is coming to take ALL your fucking “jobs” and effectively double warehouse space utilisation to boot, and shortly after you’ll notice how suited those new fulfillment centres are to being secured by a few guards here and there, wagons in, wagons out, and 20 tech employees and a bunch of barcoded on the forehead minimum wage retards like Benny from crossroads doing the final menial assemble and pack shit.
Course y’all could riot and burn it all down and not get your cheap HDMI cables from china, tell me who the losers are in that scenario.
There is basically ZERO manufacturing in the UK, fuck all local food production, fuck all else locally owned, and a huge surplus of people with no discernible skills or intellect.
It’s a problem with the seeds of its own solution growing from within.
It’s either universal credit as a drugged sheep or massive population reduction, massive education and the reintroduction of local wealth creation just isn’t a quick enough process to avert the crisis.
Besides, a crisis is a time for profit, who is going to let that going to waste, as in, who who has their hand on the tiller and the ability to do anything to avert it, eg the same people set to profit from it.
My take is they themselves aren’t smart enough to understand the potential catastrophe that they are courting.
My take is the mass muslim / nigger immigration is plan B to stop the populace from invoking madame guillotine.
My take is Plan B is worse than Plan A, but they are all spineless bog brush boys like musk, they’ll throw babies under the wheels to save themselves, but the minced baby will just ensure that the brakes stop the wheels turning and the wheels have no traction on baby mince.
My take is what will really happen is Nature is going to step in, say “hold my beer and watch this” and everyone else is going to regret being at that party.
So, no fix needed, it’s already being taken care of, and the solution isn’t something you should be impatient for.
I reckon I’ll have had sixty pretty fucking good years in by then, so what the fuck, not my problem.
To quote a men’s rights guy, I didn’t start the fire, why should I play fireman when everything gets out of control?
