Only 46 measures. Approximately 4 minutes. Mozart wrote “Ave Verum Corpus” in June 1791 — near the end of his life. So simple it's almost bare, yet it contains the heavens. Leonardo Bernstein conducted it at Waldsassen Cathedral in 1990 — slowly, lovingly, as if unwilling to leave each note. A miracle in a small package.

French novelist Michel Houellebecq is under formal investigation for declaring in 2022 that the Great Replacement is fact, not theory.

If only the French government displayed such resolve in confronting the specter of civil war and societal collapse.

In June 2013, Russian piano superstar Grigory Sokolov gave his extraordinarily rare approval for his recital to be filmed. His last performance filmed live took place more than 10 years earlier, and it was one for the record books! Enjoy his virtuoso rendition of Rameau’s Les Cyclopes, filmed by the great Bruno Monsaingeon,

Wow, no one could have possibly predicted that late-20th century “historiography” would be less accurate than the ancient sources that they hate so much.

When Nietzsche spoke of a master race, this is what he meant. A race of men who would sooner die than suffer ugliness, a race of man for whom life is nothing less than a total aesthetic.

Ten Random Election Night Thoughts:

1. Democrats in power is good business for conservative media and podcasters. Take that for what it is worth.

2. Half of Americans have an IQ of 100 or less.

3. Why is a midterm loss for the Presidential incumbent’s party so common? Are people really that shortsighted and devoid of animating principles? And I mean this in a non-partisan way. Who votes for Obama in 2008 and then helps the GOP win in 2010? Who votes for Trump in 2024 and then helps the Dems win in 2026? Are Americans really that stupidly fickle?

4. Why can’t every state count its votes in a few hours like Florida?

5. Democrat voters are like locusts. They ravage one state, escape that state to a good and decent state, and then turn their new state into the same hellhole they just left. Don’t believe me? Ask Colorado. Now, Texas, apparently.

6. Thune is happy right now.

7. The silver lining is that the Dems are going to accomplish nothing in the next two years other than to run endless, silly investigations and impeachments, which will make them look impotent and weak headed into 2028.

8. Trump is about to be unleashed. He has no midterms to worry about and he probably could care less about the campaign of the 2028 GOP nominee, JD or otherwise. “Unitary executive” is about to take on a new meaning.

9. If I was whomever is in charge of Iran at the moment, I’d be looking at properties in the Cayman Islands.

10. The legacy media still has more power than most conservatives are willing to acknowledge.

Most people know him for a productivity rule. Almost nobody knows he predicted the exact collapse of the modern managerial elite.

Long before modern commentators tried to explain why bureaucratic institutions despise the working public, an Italian nobleman named Vilfredo Pareto already mapped the entire crisis. Today, business consultants reduce his legacy to the "Pareto Principle" (the 80/20 rule). In doing so, they conceal his far more dangerous work: a ruthless, mathematically precise philosophy that exposed the grand illusion of mass democracy.

Pareto was an aristocrat, mathematician, and civil engineer who ran Italy's railways before abandoning public life in disgust. Retreating to a villa on Lake Geneva alongside twenty Angora cats, he spent his final decades studying how power actually functions. While Karl Marx peddled the fantasy of a classless utopia and liberal academics preached that voters run the state, Pareto arrived at a colder truth. Society is never ruled by the masses. It is always ruled by an organized elite, and history is merely the battlefield where one elite replaces another.

His most lethal insight was the division of power between two archetypes: the Foxes and the Lions.

Foxes are the managerial class. They are subtle, cautious, manipulative, and obsessed with consensus. They rule through bureaucratic procedures, financial schemes, media spin, and institutional maneuver. They loathe physical courage, despise traditional religion, and avoid direct confrontation at all costs. Instead, they bleed a civilization dry through taxes, regulations, and endless legal pettifoggery, convinced that clever rhetoric can overcome basic reality.

Lions, by contrast, are grounded in loyalty, family, faith, and sovereign borders. They do not care for administrative games. They value strength, decisive action, and the preservation of their heritage. When a nation is young and rising, it is led by Lions who defend its sovereignty with unapologetic force.

Pareto warned that over time, the Foxes always infiltrate the administrative apparatus. They purge the Lions from universities, courts, and civil service, creating an insulated bubble of self-congratulatory managers. Yet because Foxes are fundamentally cowardly, they cannot defend their own borders or sustain the economic foundation they harvest. They mistake compliance for loyalty, and they mistake their echo chamber for reality.

Their rule always ends the same way. As Pareto observed:

"History is a graveyard of aristocracies."

When a managerial regime becomes entirely composed of decadent Foxes, it rots from within. The moment crisis arrives, their paperwork and procedural tricks collapse, opening the gates for a new generation of Lions to sweep them away. What we are witnessing across the West today is not an ideological accident; it is the inevitable historical reckoning Pareto guaranteed more than a century ago.

@Bersekerx9 @diegocaleiro O que ele disse é verdade, exceto a causalidade que determinou o resultado das eleições.

O que vc disse é verdade - houve golpe -, exceto ao tentar invalidar tudo o que ele disse como se fosse burrice.

A essência da mensagem dele é correta, com alguma imprecisão numérica.

If you gave Joseph Goebbels five years and half a billion dollars, he couldn't come up with something this racist.

I mean, I thought *I* was getting more racist by the day, but in one fell swoop, Netflix has surpassed me, literally without even trying.

I mean, just look at her face. At the shape of her skull. Actual chimpanzees don't look like that.

I think there's a lesson here. Things we worship, like things we despise, become stereotypes. They become reduced to what we hate, or worship, about them.

In this case, Netflix is venerating Africans with such passion and vehemence, that the African character they worship becomes, not an individual with individual traits as well as African traits, but a sort of avatar of African-ness, complete with exaggerated hoodrat behavior that Netflix no longer realizes is obnoxious to civilized people.

This was always the destination point. Because to today's standard gay race communist, Africans and other venerated races do not exist as individual people, but as symbols with which to signal what they deem anti-racism, and therefore virtue.

In this, they generalize more than the most vehement of racists, because even Joseph Goebbels understood that variations exist among races he considered almost universally subhuman. Goebbels would not be confused by the existence of Thomas Sowell. He would simply consider the exclusion of Thomas Sowell to be acceptable collateral damage.

To the gay race communists at Netflix, however, Africans are not people, and they are not people in a whole new way. They are simply vessels carrying a sort of quintessential African-ness, which is to worshiped in the abstract, for the purpose of status competition.

Their individualized traits do not serve this purpose, so when Netflix invents an African character to venerate, there are no such traits to be seen.

It's just hoodrat all the way down.

@kimpaim A luta de classes como motor da história é uma ideologia golpeada de morte, o que ele parece ignorar. Mas a esquerda nunca morrerá; nunca deixarão de existir a inveja, o ressentimento, o medo, a insegurança etc, sobre os quais a mentalidade revolucionária sempre se reconstrói.
