"Many business executives, athletes, and actors have reacted to recent societal and global threats by purchasing apartments in converted missile bunkers, timeshares in survivalist communities, or buying up large tracts of land in Wyoming or New Zealand to escape what’s coming.
"Unbeknownst to the wealthy individuals who buy into these gimmicky, for profit, survival locations… there are massive online survivalist forums with thousands of well-armed, blue-collar preppers that are tracking and strategizing hostile takeovers of every one of these locations after a catastrophic event. The very last place you would ever want to take your family would be a location that has been advertised online, discussed in the media, and well known to the general public to be a survivalist or prepper location."

A few weeks ago, an image went viral. In Belgium a migrant used the eternal flame at the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier to cook an omelette. For many, the desecration brought to mind a quote from French author Jean Raspail, written in 1973 in his novel Camp of the Saints, about a sudden invasion of Muslim, Indian and African migrants into France:
“Your universe has no meaning to them. They will not try to understand. They will be tired, they will be cold, they will make a fire with your beautiful oak door.”
“Beware of two errors: despising the world God sustains, or worshipping the culture He restrains.”
— Abraham Kuyper, Common Grace Vol. 1, Ch. 30
"[Successful NY Mayoral candidate] Mamdani built his campaign on the infrastructure of the Democratic Socialists of America. The DSA and its city allies can dispatch activists across New York and, with a network of progressive partner organizations, can mobilize young people, get out the vote, and do the work of door-to-door politics.
"We saw this dynamic many times in the twentieth century: socialists rise to power, their policies degrade the quality of life, and, as they enter the endgame, they tighten their grip on power and offload resentments onto their ideological, racial, and economic enemies.
"...the twentieth century taught us that left-wing voters have extraordinary defenses against reality."
-- Christopher Rufo
