The Rise Of The New Communist Menace, Redux: New Caledonia; New Communist Target

     This previous week, your humble author opined on the threat of the neo-colonialist genocidal regime known as the People’s Republic of China, including their interest in acquiring ports and other infrastructure in places like the Pacific. Another potential victim that China is looking at is New Caledonia, which is located not far from the coast of Australia, and is having a referendum on independence from France, with the potential of Communist China gaining power over them via the “Belt & Road Initiative”:

“China is watching this vote closely and has already signaled their interest in establishing closer ties with New Caledonia. And they bring plenty to the table in terms of foreign aid and military capabilities. Losing effective control of the islands to China would be a significant blow to both France and the rest of the western world. When you consider New Caledonia’s location between Australia and Fiji, it would be a key logistical position in any potential military conflict.

“It’s bad enough that the United States is teetering on the verge of ceding the Marshall Islands to China. More recently, and much closer to home, Nicaragua broke its diplomatic ties with Taiwan and switched its official allegiance to mainland China. The Chinese Communist Party is slowly but surely extending its sphere of influence around the Pacific like an octopus. At the same time, their Belt and Road initiative is pushing Chinese influence and control into western Asia and Africa. They are effectively taking over any number of countries without firing a shot by buying their way into control.”

Quick Takes – Normalization Of Wokeness: Dispensation For Whites; Doubleplusungood Words & Phrases; The Whiteness Of “Anti-Racism”

     Another “quick takes” on items where there is too little to say to make a complete article, but is still important enough to comment on.

     The focus this time: Everything within the lens of race; nothing outside the lens of race; nothing against the lens of race.

     First, a little mood music:

     Carrying on…

     Racial and sex discrimination is the official police of one of the world’s biggest investment firms, State Street. Oh, White men can still be hired… if they are given a special dispensation, which which will likely not be given freely since executives pay is tied to having less White men in the company vis-à-vis non-Whites or women:

“Staff at one of the world’s biggest investment companies have to get special approval to hire a white man, rather than a woman or an ethnic-minority candidate.

“The policy is part of a drive by State Street, which employs 2,500 people in Ireland, to improve diversity within its middle and senior management. The multinational aims to triple the number of black, Asian and other minority staff in senior roles by 2023, and executives’ bonuses will be lower if they do not meet the targets.”

Social-Emotional Learning

     The Woke Left work in the shadows, via nice sounding organizations that crouch their evil in nice sounding words, all of which lulls the populous, and especially parents, into a slumber while children are indoctrinated.

     The story of a former teacher who witnessed this first-hand is chilling.

“What is social-emotional learning?

“By now, many Americans are aware of critical race theory, which makes race the focus of all aspects of American life. The philosophy categorizes individuals into groups of oppressors and victims, and is currently making its way through the political sphere, the military, and of course, education.

“But less well known is its ideological cousin, social-emotional learning. The program seeks to indoctrinate kids into leftist ideology by reinforcing a series of critical race theory-based morals and values.

“Jennifer McWilliams was working as a reading teacher at Frankton Elementary School in Indiana when she noticed that social-emotional learning was being taught as part of the curriculum at her school. When she voiced her concerns about the racist ideology, she was summarily fired.”

     A full interview can be heard below:

The Rise Of The New Communist Menace

     With the 30th anniversary of the fall of the Soviet Union, and the purported “end of history”, it is easy to forget that Communism still reigns over one in five human beings, with the vast majority living under the most murderous regime to have ever existed: The People’s Republic of China. That that menace is, like the threat of International Communist during the tyrannical reign of the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics, not only totalitarian in nature, but global in scope and imperial in practice.

     Communist China is at the crux one of the major potential crises, with the potential invasion of Taiwan (AKA the Republic of China), and intermingled amongst others including a potential nuclear Iran and a de facto alliance with Russia, the later of which is feeling frisky for it’s former Soviet “glory”.

     In many ways, a “shadow war” is at hand. This new Cold War is one that is being waged without opposition by one side: Communist China and its growing plethora of minions. Former Secretary of State, and current special envoy for environmental issues, openly declared the Monroe Doctrine to be dead—and oh how Communist China has listened! They openly mock American democracy. The Biden Administration is currently feuding with a fellow member of the Compact of Free Association, the Marshall Islands, and potentially giving Communist China a chance to establish forward bases deep into the Pacific for their fleet, air force, and ground troops to base themselves.

     They are openly taking control of the infrastructure in other continents, via their “belt and road” initiative that lured is poorer nation like suckers, including air fields and ports, which will undoubtedly be used as forward bases by the Chinese military.
