Modern Preparedness | Anglo Realist Fiction

[Metropolized Society @DominicJeopardy]

Britain is changing.

Stop doomscrolling. Pause the weird prepping videos.

Follow this quick start guide to better preparedness in 30 days.

{Don't make prepping an identity. Do take practical actions day-by-day. Think for yourself. It's up to you.}

I truly believe that the optimal way forward is embracing a Dark Age Mindset. This means:
- Embracing Decline as Opportunity. When the foundations of familiar institutions are shaken, it's a signal to us to stop investing so much effort and dependence on those things, and create new alternatives that actually serve us as people and communities.
-Cultivating Resilient Character and Faith. The folks who did this before were not weak, fragile, or wishy-washy. Get hard.
-Preserve and Transmit Knowledge. If institutions that have historically been responsible for this (looking at you, media and schools) are failing, then it's another opportunity for us to step into decentralized roles as stewards of cultural patrimony, preserving literacy, classical texts, and traditions and educating our own children with this heritage to ensure continuity in a potentially post-literate or tech-degraded world.
-Pursuing Self-Sufficiency and Simplicity. "Ora et labora" was the motto that drove that age forward and upward. But they showed us that simplicity needn't be minimalist or ugly; some of the most durable and beautiful things ever made came from these times.
-Reject Dooming and Be Proactive. No despair. Instead, simplify your processes, improve your skills, and meet your challenges vigorously.
-Foster Creativity in Adversity. Necessity is the mother of invention. But the human person is not merely mechanical; we need beauty, music, good stories, living rituals, significance... Cultivate these things especially in the face of monopolized artificiality.
-Focus on Local and Subsidiarist Action. Subsidiarity is handling matters at the smallest, most local level possible; create "schools for service" (as Benedict did) that prioritize family, home culture, nature, and education over distant, failing institutions. The more responsibility you take up over all the spheres of your living experience, the more you step into sovereignty.

#19 The English Resistance.
The Norman's inflicted the much forgotten "harrying of the north" upon us, a scorched earth policy resulting in 20% of our population dead. We had our heroes though, like Hereward the Wake, that fought a guerilla war against them from Ely marshes.

[Metropolized Society @DominicJeopardy]

@cynicalbobby Yet you live in a country where someone like Roy Larner was put on the anti-terror watchlist?

[Sam Ashworth-Hayes @SAshworthHayes]

This is why the net figures don't show the scale of the damage migration is doing.

Even if we just look at the skilled workers, we're swapping UK trained doctors for foreign canners and corner shop staff.

Add on asylum seekers and family visas and the results are even worse.

[Æthelstan @TheHauskarl]

I merely wished to live my own life in my own way, yet life has a way of impinging on us all, obliging us to speak up or forever hold our peace.

If it is to be condemned as partly mad to look towards the future and worry - to sense that one's identity and past is convulsing, as though rendered ill by some malaise while it is rewritten minute by minute, hour by hour, then so be it.

Britain is not a series of hand-waving vagaries, of polite pretences to be tone policed by HR wokescolds.

It is a great place, with great people, and an illustrious history of which there is a great deal to be very proud.

Britain represents the last home of the British on earth, if they are not to feel at ease with themselves, comfortable and at home there, then where?

“This royal throne of kings, this scepter’d isle,
This earth of majesty, this seat of Mars,
This other Eden, demi-paradise,
This fortress built by Nature for herself
Against infection and the hand of war,
This happy breed of men, this little world,
This precious stone set in the silver sea,
Which serves it in the office of a wall
Or as a moat defensive to a house,
Against the envy of less happier lands,
This blessed plot, this earth, this realm, this England"

― William Shakespeare, Richard II

Present-day Yookay is so dystopian and bleak. We need a serious island-wide exorcism, a great spiritual revival.

[Ben Cobley @bencobley]

My long-read on how the Muslim Brotherhood works as an ideology as much as anything, a politics that exploits the post-Christian custom that religion is independent from politics. And so we find charity funding Muslim supremacist politics.

Lack of innate physicality is one of the reasons many female police overcompensate with excessive attitude.

Needs to be spoken about.

[DapperDan 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿 @Dapper_DanUK]

Three female police officers walk up to a man sitting on a barrier and tell him he’s under arrest. He stands up, casually shrugs off the attempt to restrain him, and jogs away while they make a half-arsed comical chase.

This is British policing in 2026.

How embarrassing is this?
These are the people you’re supposed to call when you’re in trouble.
You’re meant to feel safe knowing that you can rely on them.

When forces lower physical standards, dropping the bleep test requirement from 5.4 to 3.7 in many forces, removing the upper body strength test entirely in 2016, and prioritising diversity targets and recruitment numbers over real competence this is exactly what you get. Public safety becomes optional.

Get rid of DEI.

@jonatanpallesen We have other localised datasets.

In 2018 Finland opens up the closed taxi market. Many foreigners start becoming drivers.

FFWD to Helsinki in 2024: sex crimes perpetrated by taxi drivers skyrocketed, every single one committed by immigrant-bg drivers.

[Bovril-Gesellschaft @BovrilG]

Poles were always an immigration outlier and it’s a pity that they were used as a proxy for wider concerns by both sides. They were almost unique in having a much poorer country than us because of 50 years of communism instead of worse human capital so there was a very time-limited flow enabling a decade or so of labour arbitrage before it cut itself off.

[Will Solfiac @willsolfiac]

Amazing list. Some of my favourite examples of businesses that can sponsor "skilled worker visas":
- "Bossmans Retail Abergavenny"
- "Booze Lichfield ltd"
- "Edinburgh phone and vape ltd"

I genuinely didn't realise what a farce 'skilled worker visas' were. There's a corner shop near me that has a new seemingly FOB Indian staff member every month. It has quite a generic name so I can't be sure it's on the list, but there's a few it definitely could be.

Never guilt. Never self-hate.

Cambridge published a meta-analysis last year on the persuasiveness of 'narrative entertainment (TV, film, etc).

The results showed it was particularly effective for reducing out-group stigma/prejudice, thus making it an extremely potent instrument for anti-White propaganda.

This is why you have orgs like the Norman Lear Center's 'Hollywood, Health & Society' program consulting with producers to 'normalise behaviours' regarding not only health, but race. You can find documents on 'Systemic Racism' and the 'History of Whiteness' on their website.

Hollywood uses common themes and allegories in order to inculcate subversive behaviours into Western audiences. One recurring trope is the 'Birthright' sacrifice, in which a White character (often representing Western patrimony) redeems themselves by relinquishing status, property, or their lives to a non-White racial other. This act is framed as a kind of moral ascendency - @WSdagg has done several brilliant video essays on this topic.

One of the most explicit examples is the film Knives Out (2019). Harlan Thrombey, a wealthy White novelist, slits his throat to protect his kind Ecuadorian anchor-baby nurse. He rewrites his will, leaving his estate and publishing empire to her instead of his own family. His disgruntled family are depicted as greedy, vulgar, and backstabbing, while the nurse is selfless and morally incorruptible (she literally cannot lie without vomiting). In the denouement, the most detestable family member delivers the following monologue...

The intention of the film is obvious: White people (and by extension, White societies) achieve redemption by sacrificing themselves and their inheritance for outsiders, while anyone who resists this civilisational transfer is a villain.

This perverse morality has been deliberately seeded into the minds of millions of White people for decades.

[Metropolized Society @DominicJeopardy]

@Zhanglo_Beihai Indeed. Britain might also become a magnet for foreign fighters - a kind of reversal of the substantial flow of 'Brits' who fought abroad for ISIS.

[Metropolized Society @DominicJeopardy]

Important addition to the Betz thesis.

[noticer @ano_noticer]

@GavinBoby I think they'd get propped up with backing from foreign states though.
They have developed criminal syndicates that know how to smuggle all sorts of contraband and without a state that makes some attempt to impede them, they'd be able to import resources without restriction.

@RupertLowe10 A sane society would hang the perpetrators and bury them at sea.

[Tom Harwood @tomhfh]

Lee Kuan Yew abolished trial by jury in Singapore after determining that it was too easy for defence lawyers to appeal to racial and religious biases of juries in multicultural Singapore.

He writes in his memoirs how as a young lawyer he was able to get three clients acquitted who he was sure did commit murder. LKY writes that he "worked on the weaknesses of the jury -- their biases, their prejudices, their reluctance really to find four Muslims guilty of killing in cold blood or in a heat of great passion, religious passion, an RAF officer, his wife and child."

He writes "The judge was thoroughly disgusted. I went home feeling quite sick because I knew I'd discharged my duty as required of me, but I knew I had done wrong.”

Study after study shows that in multi ethnic societies, there is significant in-group bias on juries.

Make Britain A Cumulatively Confident Society Again.

@jacobreynolds Regrettably, this hardly seems to a cumulatively confident society anymore.

@Casey5122dark Tolerance is not a virtue. It’s a weakness. It’s a moral failure.

[Gerard Casey @Casey5122dark]

"People leave failed societies—and through their mere presence reproduce precisely those conditions they sought to escape. The West imports not only people but also the archaic cultural notions, gender roles, homophobia, antisemitism, and institutional deficits of their countries of origin. Anyone who criticizes this because it does not fit the parties' narrative is quickly labeled as 'right-wing.' But the real absurdity lies in the fact that a continent once admired for centuries for its achievements is voluntarily embarking on the path to its own decadence—merely to avoid appearing ‘intolerant'."

[Æthelstan @TheHauskarl]

Imagine how bad the bodycam video must be for the state to convict him of murder without 12 months of deliberation and several thousand hours of 4K Blu-Ray footage from multiple angles.

And then to send forth one of their cronies to say "sorry" to the general public.

Ironically that's how you know it's REALLY bad, because they're hoping that this PR exercise will discourage further questioning.
