The modern Western world is absolutely bonkers. Supposedly representative governments are at war with their own cultural traditions, traditional religious confessions, and even their own legal structures (often for the benefit of migrants over their own native born citizens). Putatively democratic regimes void elections and ban candidates as in Romania, actively ban unapproved opposition parties as in Germany, and wage ‘lawfare’ on unapproved candidates such as in France (among many other places). The message is that voting is all well and good, but there are limits which popular sovereignty is not allowed to transgress. Even mild forms of traditional patriotism are rapidly branded as ‘nationalism’, which the elites assure us must be suppressed with extreme vigor in favor of a Globalist ethos. Opposing open borders, because a citizen wishes to bequeath to his own children a nation much like the one he inherited, is decried as the most despicable form of racism. Anything that smacks of tradition is immediately treated as suspicious. Family structure, gender roles, even the concept of biological sex itself – all seem to be in the crosshairs of the modern liberal state.

Critical Theory, Critical Race Theory, Political Correctness, Woke, Transgenderism, Transhumanism, Progressivism, Environmentalism, open borders, unorthodox religions, suppression of antisemitism, antiracism, and various forms of Marxism – are not disconnected movements. These are weapons wielded by Western Ruling Elites in a war on their own societies. https://orthodoxreflections.com/perpetual-war-on-hitler-the-open-society-consensus/
