I think I'll also make a video of this essay, I'll embed the video within the main article. I try not to spam everyone's emails.

Brilliant essay. You’ve really hit your stride recently Morgoth, consistently on the nail commentary. The Queen’s death, the on-going Covid vaccine gaslighting, the superb movie review of ‘Cromwell’ and more. Huge thanks for the engaging, intelligent content.

The degree to which people in "the west" - a euphemism for "white countries" - have come to depend on processes they don't understand and machinery they don't build has fascinated me for years. It always seemed inevitable that a greater and greater detachment from the creation and understanding of tools people use would end badly.

Yet, I suspect that the current rate of decay is too fast to be sustained, and that there is an element of manufacture in this crisis. After all, how will they create personalized banking, bockchain money and social credit if the internet and power grid aren't reliable? It appears there's a conflict there.

On the subject of food shortages, however, there is one aspect I haven't seen discussed. Most African countrues are dependent on food aid. Now that migration routes have been firmly established, and Non-Government Organisations (a cute name for organisations that work for the government) are in place to keep those routes open, what will happen when the Africans begin to starve? Won't they begin to migrate north in numbers that make established migration look like a trickle? I can't imagine a modern famine would play out like in the 80s, when they just stayed put and starved.

It's worth bearing in mind also that European supranational technocrats have for decades been obsessed with the fusion of Europe and Africa, in Europe. Maybe I'm on the wrong track, but, if this happens, what institutional power would have the will to stop it?

Perfect. This is the most creative, astoundingly well-written essay you have ever written. This is why you need writings like this published in a book. Once those precarious, sea-weed and barnacle covered cables break down, all those words will be lost, like tears in the rain...

I sincerely hope Delores Cahill is wrong. That's about my level of optimism at the moment.

Thank you for what you do.

I'm going with Lady of Shalott as below ., even though she is a Victorian Autsralian., .. "Brilliant essay. You’ve really hit your stride recently Morgoth, consistently on the nail commentary.

I hope you do a video to this as it’s truly exceptional, I’ve read it three times now. The thinking behind it is honestly something I’m just not used to.

Apologies for sounding like a crawling cunt but you really are a national treasure. In a normal world this would be getting shared far and wide.

Can't help thinking of the temptation of Saint Anthony by Dali when I see those elephants. He resisted what they symbolise, maybe we should've too.
