The woke want us to solve our differences while we are gagged. It's not about solving problems it's about power.

The smallest minority on earth is the individual.
Those who deny individual rights
cannot claim to be defenders of minorities.
(Ayn Rand).

The UN is an organisation that Australia should disengage itself from. The UN is a threat to our sovereignty - the latest lurk being the WHO wanting to dictate to Australia, and other countries silly enough to sign up, health policies concerning pandemics.

Kudos ttbn.

Yes sovereignty is important. Government of the people by the people for the people. But what is a people. Perhaps the US didn't envisage the scale of mass immigration and refugees in 1776. Many nations evolved from tribes- so the integrity of the nation is tied to the ethnicity, race, culture of the tribe- to replace the people of a nation is racism. But there are many sorts of racism and bigotry. It's somewhat reductionist to accuse someone of racism because everyone is guilty- but people shouldn't feel guilty of protecting themselves and their own lives and cultures. In a sense the West is particularly vulnerable to guilt given the role of "sin" in Christianity either secular or religious cultures- perhaps this is not shared in Hebrew culture or other Abrahamic cultures. Communism according to Dostoevsky is nihilism seeking to destroy all culture in the name of freedom from "the man"- but communism isn't freedom as we've seen. Without "the man" there isn't organization, or nation, or culture, or food- and we all starve. This is the result of woke-ism and communism- death. The new age- human potential movement (EST and others) talked about killing the policeman in our heads reverting to nihilism. Nikita Krushchev seemed to imply in his comment "we will bury you" that we are completely unaware of the breath and depth- the very reality meaning and it's distortionary effects of communism.

One of the founding ideas of democracy is that if everyone can act according to their own interest- violent change of leader is unnecessary- but in the world of today more and more people find themselves as powerless- ripe conditions for violent change- if it wasn't for tyrannical technology.

Taken from the internet:

"The history of Britain's population is all about
arriving, staying, and settling or -
leaving, moving, and settling elsewhere."

"People from continental Europe began to settle in
different parts of Britain over the last Ice Age,
around 12,000 years ago."

"Ever since, the islands have been continuously occupied
as new arrivals mixed with existing residents."

This story continues in modern Britain, and many other
countries around the world, as people come from every
corner of the globe to settle in their turn.
