Did Our War Dead Inadvertently Open The Gates To Wokery?
I am not for one moment criticising our war dead for they were real men, a much better breed than we have today – far superior to me. The men who fought in the world wars saved us and a whole continent from a future we cannot imagine – we owe them a debt that will never be repaid in full.
The question I want to ponder is: Would our country be in a better position today if we had not lost so many good, brave and patriotic men on the battlefields of Europe last century? Did losing our best men have unforeseen consequences decades later?
In the first world war, 880,000 British soldiers died which was 6% of the adult male population. In the second world war, another 384,000 died. Huge losses for consecutive generations of British men.
I have no evidence for what I am about to say but it seems a logical statement to make. Braver soldiers put themselves at greater risk of harm and so must die in greater numbers than the average soldier. This seems logical to me. Who do you think storms the machine gun nest? Who throws themselves on the grenade to save their comrades? Only the bravest of soldiers do such things and many eventually pay the ultimate price. Bravery has always been in short supply, that is why we value it.
The Victoria Cross, aka the VC, is the highest and most prestigious award of the British honours system. It is awarded for valour 'in the presence of the enemy' to members of the British Armed Forces and is usually awarded posthumously. Only the bravest of the brave receive such an honour.
An interesting fact about recipients of the Victoria Cross is that 75% were the eldest child of a large family of siblings or the child of a young widow. This interesting statistic shows a pre-disposition of bravery is seen in those who have responsibility for others from an early age. They carry this trait into war and take on responsibility for the welfare of their fellow soldiers in arms.
What does losing a large proportion of the bravest men in society do to the home population and future generations after the war ends? The bravery gene (it is not a gene, but a trait influenced by nature and nurture) is reduced within that population for it is not passed on genetically or paternally – meaning generations of less brave people are created.
This trait deficit should be overcome in several generations as women continue to select mates who possess attractive personal characteristics, such as bravery. But a new player came along at the same time and started to interfere with the traditional desires of women - we call it feminist ideology.
Women slowly began to take on male traits, dreams and responsibilities and became more masculine as a result. With fewer real male leaders due to the wars, men began to embrace their feminine side for an easier life with less responsibility. Other factors may also have contributed, such as the contamination of our water supply with oestrogen from the pill and animal farming is a topic you may want to read up on. Scary.
Just to be clear, before the feminists attack me for misogyny, allow me to say that I am not talking about the right to vote for women being a mistake – the truth is that nearly everyone was fighting for this right, not only women. I am also not talking about women going to work as wrong, for working-class women have always worked, otherwise, their families would have starved to death.
The male capitulation to feminism destroyed the foundation of the nuclear family and ushered in an explosion in single motherhood – every single report tells us that children do worse in life when they do not grow up with both a mother and father in the home. And yet, we do nothing about it.
Would we have trans nonsense, youth delinquency or Incels if we had real men at home raising their children? Would we have tens of thousands of girls gang-raped on an industrial scale if we had brave men in the country? Would we allow an invasion of illegal migrants if we had honourable men in positions of power? Weak men produce bad times.
Women are not happy with the current state of affairs, everything they were told to do to make themselves ‘whole’ has turned out to be detrimental to their well-being. Since they took on male roles their reported happiness has declined every decade since the 1960s. Every woman I know with children who works full-time is at breaking point with stress and anxiety, but they feel they have to continue otherwise they are a failure as a modern woman. Nearly one in five women in the UK are on anti-depressants. King Midas craved gold - that did not work out too well for him!
A man's role is to protect his family and tribe. The bravest men do it better for they do not allow their personal convenience to take precedence over the welfare of their wives and children. Difficult conversations will be had, damaging behaviour will be challenged. Their motto is definitely not: Anything for a quiet life!
Do you imagine for one moment that the bravest men who died fighting for our freedom would have ever supported mass abortion? 'Let's kill innocent babies for personal convenience' was not the rallying cry in the trenches of Flanders or the desserts of North Africa - the cry was 'Down with tyranny!'
I am often accused of blaming women for all of society's ills. This could not be further from the truth for I place the blame on men for negating their responsibility to protect family and community. This sometimes means protection from women and their poor ideas.
Compassion, tolerance and #bekind are all beneficial traits when living in a small tribe where nearly everyone is biologically related – it is socialism at its most basic level and the only time it ever works. Women are more predisposed to such traits for it allows them to be better mothers and foster social peace in the tribe. A problem occurs when the size of the tribe is increased exponentially and resources are shared with individuals you do not know and will never meet.
Both sexes have a responsibility for the well-being and future success of the tribe. Women are responsible for producing the next generation for they are semi-divine and godlike creatures.
The wizardry of women leaves men in awe, so real men place upon their shoulders responsibility for everything else as an offering to the angelic.
