What do we tell our kids and grandkids about what we did when Western Civilization was melting away?

“I held a candle at a vigil for bombing victims”

“I laid some flowers and a teddy bear at makeshift memorial”

“I put a ‘Jeg suis....whatever’ image on my Facebook profile for a few weeks” ??

Japan is an old culture, one which will likely exist long after we kill our own with political correctness.

Except that they're dying-out because their people of child-bearing age aren't bearing children.

I don’t know why you would think I stated Japan’s total muzzie pop was 37 or under.

Maybe it was your post #3:

They have taken a grand total of 37 Muzzie refugees and there are no plans for more.

They can bounce back from that. At least their progeny will be growing up in Japan. Inject an alien civilization into their culture and it will no longer be Japan.

Many of the “jokes” about Poland are a result of 75 years of Nazi and Soviet post war propaganda which painted the Poles as ignorant, antisemitic peasants who charged German tanks with lances and participated in the Holocaust. This was done to undercut support for Poles in the US and England during the Soviet conquest and reconquest of Poland during the war.

Don’t forget the Polish contributions during World War II. They were one of the few countries who had to fight both the Nazis and the Soviets at the same time. They inflicted over 60,000 casualties on the Wermacht during the initial invasion and NEVER surrendered (there was no “Vichy” Poland). The Polish pilots who escaped to England formed the highest scoring squadrons of the RAF during the Battle of Britain. They comprised 10% of the RAF fighter force and scored 40% of the kills. The Polish Home Army continued active resistance throughout the war and provided the Allies in Enigma code machine to the allies and notified the world of the Nazi program of extermination against the Jews. Expat Poles in the Middle East formed the Carpathian Brigade and helped the British turn back Rommel’s advance on Egypt in the first Battle of Tobruk. The Carpathian Brigade joined with @ 40,000 starving Poles freed from Stalin’s Gulag and went on to form the Polish II Corps and take the mountain top at Monte Cassino. The list goes on and on.

The tragedy of Poland is the world keeps forgetting how incredibly brave and faithful they are. They are America’s most loyal ally dating back to our war of Independence, yet most American’s know little more about Poland than those old stale Polish jokes.

Poland had had every bit of the MUSLIM JIHADIST crap they
could take. In one walled city, they had welcomed in a
small number of Muslims who repayed their kindness by
opening the gates of the city & letting in their Jihadist
buddies. Muslims then killed EVERYONE in the city (it
was a huge population), beheading & throwing the bodies in
the river that ran through it. The river ran red with blood.
Vienna became the line in the sand against Mohammed’s
hordes. The people united & stood & delivered.

Yakuza are rather more skilled than islamo types in the beheading and other parts dept. help them to rest in pieces near the night soil carp pond.

I went to a predominately Polish-American Catholic high school in Chicago. I learned a lot about their culture, their faith and their American assimilation. Every so-called Polish joke I heard as a kid was nullified. They are a great bunch of people. They deserve great respect. God bless them.

I nominate Rob Ski of AK47-74 Operators Union as America’s greatest Polish immigrant.

You forgot lighting p your FB page with colors of the flag. That will really do wonders to defeat the terrorists.

Well, at least it give them a warm, fuzzy feeling as they await being annihilated.

With IIRC ~15% of their island’s landmass being inhabitable and nowhere to expand (what’re they gonna do, invade China?) Japan has hit a wall that’s been centuries in coming.

Now their natalism could use some work but they literally, physically do not have room for a big baby boom like the USA did. They have to walk a very delicate balance or they will seriously start having to tell people at some point “you have to emigrate because there’s no room for new housing”.

Tragically? Huh?

Thankfully is more like it.

They're banking on robots taking care of the old folks. Still it's better than importing the third world like Europe (soon to be Eurabia) and the USA (soon to be Amerexico) have done. In theory the Japanese population can bounce back some day and they'll still be Japan. Not so in the dead former "West".

I truly don’t understand the thoughts of some conservatives that seem to think nations populations don’t fluctuate up or down over time. Was America evil and deserving of death prior to the baby boom? I just don’t get it. It’s natural flow, up and down. Massive over population with limited resources is how you get great cultures for Sally Strothers to cry over.
