The European Elections: A Slight Shift to the Slight Right

It's a rainy day in San Sebastian, Spain. I am sitting in my apartment there, having peeled off layers of soaked clothing, I turn to the results of the just-held elections for the European Parliament. 

Reading the leftist press, and most press and TV in Spain (and France) is of the MSNBC leftist variety, you would think the Nazi panzers are rolling through the streets. The hysteria is quite remarkable and reminiscent of the left's reaction in the US to Trump's 2016 electoral victory. Postings on X are quite vehement in decrying the victory of the "Nazis and Fascists." I read of violence in some parts of Europe where bands of lefties attack people and institutions considered "right." Sob stories echo throughout the media from "immigrants" decrying the imminent arrival of trucks and trains to send them off to camps and deportation. God forbid that those wanting to live under sharia, should have to live under sharia. 

As usual, the left's minions need to switch to decaf. 

Yes, there has been a welcome shift to the right in Europe. With a couple of exceptions, e.g., France where Macron has dissolved the French parliament and called for snap elections, hardly earth-shaking. The left/center-left continues to hold a sizable mass of seats with which to block the right/center-right and prevent a serious correction to the disastrous voyage on which Europe has embarked. As mentioned above, the left continue to hold the media, and, of course, the entrenched large and very deep state. 

Parliamentary politics has a great failing: the need, very often, to form coalitions to govern. That means, often, a particular party's voters feel betrayed when their party make compromises to get into a coalition. It's prime operating theater for RINOs and their European equivalents. 

I remain pessimistic about the future of the West. Yes, there are some bright spots, e.g., Netherlands, Hungary, but overwhelmingly the left holds a grip on the future, and it's a dark future. I fear for the world of my grandkids.

  1. I'm no fan of Monsieur Micron but credit where credit is due. When the Bidens walked out of the D-Day celebrations he looked around, saw that some American ex-Servicemen had been rather abandoned, and rushed over to shake their hands and hug them. Good for him.

  2. Keep working here to support non-insane candidates! Yes the Dems try to steal elections, but it was a massive, coordinated effort in selected cities in 2020. They lack the means to steal every election everywhere. Keep voting, donating, and volunteering. Sure we all have our problems with the GOP, but it's them or the Democrats. An easy choice to make.

  4. EU and US politicians are responding to a dramatic population crash. I'm guessing that all federal-level politicians are made aware of it.... so they can rail against importing people or scream on its behalf... but they all know they're fighting an impending demographic financial meltdown.

    It's not a 'great replacement'... that would be true if americans were sterile.. infertile... but fertility isn't the problem, pajama-boy's wifeless-childless-lifestyle-commitment. This is a historical decadence never seen even in the hey days of indolent rich brits. Millions of layabout men welding their butts to a couch and playing video games and watching porn 100 hours a week.... too lazy to even groom themselves, everything is 'ordered out'. "'Hope my allowance doesn't run out, but with how cheap I live... that's not gonna happen, pass the hot pockets!"

    Sorry, I to am very unhappy that islam is taking over the midwest through immigration.... if we were raising enough children to fill our job vacancies, we'd have a point to cracking down on immigration of all types. I don't think immigration is going to right anything, but it'll probably let the boomer generation die off in peace before the wars begin.

    1. #1482, you make good points but I would add in defense of American manhood that the pajama boy lifestyle has been encouraged by the Left's success in turning much of a couple of generations of American women into repulsive, man-hating harridans.

  5. Sitting here in Arsoli Italy, I’m listening to a lot of Italians decrying Melosi’s return. All I say to them is “Boo Hoo Swowflake, suck it up” Having retired here (in Italy), I guess I’m not going to make too many friends with my Leftist type neighbours …

    1. @Skip Where Islam goes violence will follow, Islamic doctrine is religiously genocidal. Violence is what the adherents must do. The US is well on the way down the same path as Europe. And violence is quite often a tactic of the left which is why Dems are ideological soulmates of Iran, Hamas, and the jihad.

    2. They do it because europeans.. like americans... are too stupid and lazy to have and raise children. What are they going to do? Just have their population die off until the last person has died, still saying "nobody else should ever live here"?
      The population groups that are emigrating to/infiltrating america/europe are the ones that are growing.

  7. What I'm confused by these days, is how people *aren't* seeing all hostilities against the US and its various partners being coordinated out of China. Russia's GDP is just 10% that of the PRC, and Iran is less than 5%. Russia-vs-Ukraine, Iran/HAMAS-vs-Israel are the same conflict.... bankrolled by the PRC. The PRC takes these steps because its domestic economy is in freefall after a housing overprovision that makes the US-2008 look like missing kindergarten lunch money. What else can the PRC do? Make arms and factories for export to its satraps in moscow, tehran, pakistan, and other niches of China's global expansions. If the PRC *stops* doing this, then its entire workforce goes unemployed, because what they're *not* going to be doing, is building 500 million *more* unoccupied housing units. It's all Xi and his range of marionettes.

  8. A guy from South Africa that does very spicy content just had his visa revoked on the way to boarding gate. He’s never committed a crime except for hate speech.
