Voters in the European elections did not show much understanding of their dangerous state of collapse. Remarks Simplicius, "Civic virtue has died because our culture has been poisoned beyond rehabilitation. Even if you were to clear the slate of techno- and bureaucracy you’d be left with the stupefied degenerate masses too gormless to be ruled justly and virtuously."

Adds Mark Wauck, "[The people] are sick. Society has been reduced, largely, to a collection of atomistic individuals lacking the unifying principle of a culture rooted in a moral and metaphysical vision. That was Christendom, which seemingly is no more—replaced by the profit motive or, in our all embracing welfare New Deal, the plaintive cry: Where’s mine?"

The simple solution to all of the above: the people could embrace and restore Christendom, and then take it to even more robust and longer-lasting levels of cultural influence.
