You truly can’t make this stuff up. This is an ad that pops in my feed here in Canada:
RPMC boot camp, really ;-D

This is a very good and necessary measure:
The Trump Administration has invoked the long-unenforced Immigration Act of 1882 to prohibit entry into the United States of “any convict, lunatic, idiot, or any person unable to take care of himself or herself without becoming a public charge.”
Ultimately, this will allow the Trump Administration to deny green cards to immigrants who are likely to use federal welfare, food stamps, or Medicaid, and to revoke the green cards of immigrants who are currently using these programs.I can’t even begin to understand how anybody could be opposed to this. I’m very much in favor of preserving Medicaid and food stamps. This is the way to do it.

Continue reading →: What Hinders Assimilation
I know a guy who emigrated to Canada at the age of 22. This was in 1998. He has lived in Canada this entire time. He is economically very successful in Canada, but he is friendly with zero people outside of his immigrant community. His English is functional but very basic. His French is nonexistent. He consumes no entertainment in English or French. He is very interested in politics but has the most tenuous knowledge about Canadian politics.
This is an extremely sociable person with a wide circle of friends. But they are all from his immigrant community. He spent 30 years in Canada recreating his life at home and has been very successful at it.
This guy is the perfect example of what hinders assimilation. As soon as you have enough immigrants from a specific country to form a community, they no longer need to assimilate.
The person I’m talking about is Ukrainian. I’m also Ukrainian. I couldn’t have avoided assimilating, even if I wanted to (and I obviously don’t) because there is no Ukrainian community where I live.
It’s not that anybody is bad or inferior, but it’s normal for people to seek out their own. When people don’t get a choice, they assimilate. When they do, they often start resisting assimilation.
This is simply a numbers game. After a certain number, there is no assimilation.

I took Klara on a tour of the campus where I got my BA and MA. It’s the weirdest feeling to be in all your youthful haunts with your child. I feel like breaking out in tears. At any moment, I expect to see this young version of myself round the corner.
And it’s also, one of the most important people who were here with me is no longer alive.

As a young woman, I lived in an area with a large number of exactly this type of immigrant. It was very unpleasant because I was constantly harassed by them. They “assimilate” economically but in numbers of any significance they create an extremely downgraded, unpleasant reality for women.

And then they go, “why is my child suffering from anxiety, hmm, what a mystery.”
Strawberry there is giving brilliant advice but try getting people to listen.

I would be fascinated to learn how it is possible that all of the pro-open-border Jews in America (which is 99% of both left-wing and right-wing Jews) did not figure out that this is what they are so eager to import:
In academia, I’ve heard the most atrociously antisemitic things said to my face by professors from Latin America. Things that a US professor wouldn’t even know how to think, let alone say.
Yes, there’s a lot of Jew hate outside of the third world. True. But the point is that there is nothing but it anywhere in the third world. The West is the only oasis for Jews, women, gays, and everybody else who really needs to be safe from overheated violent hordes. Crap into your only oasis and there won’t be another one.

If you hate American press, you need to discover the wonders of the Spanish MSM.
Guess what is missing from this news item? The five men who assaulted the Moroccan immigrants are… also Moroccan immigrants.
Journalists are such whores that they give actual whores a bad name.

Curiously, the writer who called me a peasant face is not wrong. I look exactly like my mother who hails from a deep Ukrainian countryside.
The writer is a rude prick but he’s got great powers of observation. I take exception to the idea that there’s anything wrong with peasant faces and I carry mine proudly.

Going to see my mother at the hospital. God give me strength.
With old age and sickness you become more of everything you always were. Nothing new comes out. Only the traits from before, greatly amplified.
It’s a good idea to work on the antisocial, weird traits one has before old age hits.
