From Peter Turchin's "End Times", 2023, chapter A1:

"Actually, Tolstoy did not get the calculation quite right. (He was a genius

at writing great books, not at doing math.) But the core idea of estimating

factor x by analyzing many, many battles is spot on. Much later, this

approach was used by the American military historian Trevor N. Dupuy. In

his 1987 book, Understanding War: History and Theory of Combat, Dupuy

equated the combat power of an army to the product of three quantities: force

strength (the number of troops modified by the quality and quantity of their

equipment), operational and environmental modifiers (terrain, weather,

posture—defensive versus offensive), and combat effectiveness. The last one

is Tolstoy’s factor x.

Dupuy then analyzed several wars for which he could obtain data on

multiple battles. As an example, his analysis of the eighty-one engagements

between the German and British or American forces in 1943 and 1944

showed that the combat efficiency of the Germans was 1.45 times greater

than that of the British. This means that if the British wanted to get an even

chance at winning a battle against the Germans, they had to bring 45 percent

more troops (or arm them more heavily in the same proportion). Americans

did better than the Brits, but not by much. They still had to amass a third as

many troops as the Germans in order to have a fifty-fifty chance of victory.

Turns out we can make a lot of progress in quantifying the fighting spirit.

More recently, my colleagues within the field of cultural evolution have been

probing the psychology of readiness for extreme sacrifice, using such

concepts as “devoted actors,” “sacred values,” and “identity fusion.”[14]

I live exactly in the heart of Minnesota German farm country (per your posted map), live in a house recently re-built by a member of a long-time German family, and there's no doubt in my mind about the existence of bred-in-the-bone German industry.

Happy New Years to you, too.

Judeo-messianism has been spreading its poisonous message among us for nearly two thousand years. Democratic and communist universalisms are more recent, but they have only come to reinforce the old Jewish narrative . . . They are the same ideals.

The transnational, transracial, transsexual, transcultural ideals that these ideologies preach to us (beyond peoples, races, cultures) and which are the daily sustenance of our schools, in our media, in our popular culture, at our universities, and on our streets, have ended up reducing our biosymbolic identity and ethnic pride to their minimal expression.

Jewish bankers flooded Europe with Muslims and America with third-world garbage . . . Exile as punishment for those who preach sedition should be reinstated within the legal framework of the West . . .

Judaism, Christianity, and Islam are death cults originating in the Middle East and totally alien to Europe and its peoples . . . We National Socialists came to liberate Paris, we did not destroy it.

One sometimes wonders why the European left gets along so well with Muslims. Why does an often overtly anti-religious movement take the side of a fierce religiosity that seems to oppose almost everything the left has always claimed to stand for? Part of the explanation lies in the fact that Islam and Marxism have a common ideological root: Judaism.

Don Rumsfeld was right when he said, "Europe has shifted on its axis," it was the wrong side that won World War II, and it is becoming clearer every day. What has NATO done to defend Europe? Absolutely nothing . . . My enemies are not in Moscow, Damascus, Tehran, Riyadh or some ethereal Teutonic boogeyman, my enemies are in Washington, Brussels and Tel Aviv.

Unlike you, I'm not at all certain what's disturbing humans these days (or in the past), or what's truly at the heart of it all. My comment was meant to merely bring in a bit of outside evidence regarding long-standing German character traits, one of the subjects of this Neo-Feudal Review post. Any time I see something like this, it gets my attention, as it makes the point that there are, in fact, just like in dogs, cats, and all other animal species, different human 'breeds' that fairly consistently carry the same attributes along with them through time. A beagle is a beagle, a setter is a setter, and, it seems, a German is a German, and an Englishman is an Englishman.

Heinrich Himmler on How Bolshevik Christianity Spreads Homosexuality and Hatred of Women . . .

❝150 years ago someone at a Catholic university wrote a doctoral thesis with the title: “Does a woman have a soul?” From this the whole tendency of Christianity emerges: it is directed at the absolute destruction of women and at emphasizing the inferiority of women. The entire substance of the priesthood and of the whole of Christianity is, I am firmly convinced, an erotic union of men (Männerbund) for the erection and maintenance of this 2,000-year old Bolshevism.❞

Great article and thank you for bringing a spotlight on those like Lindbergh who stood against the machine. Maybe, just maybe it will inspire others to have the courage to stand for what is right despite the consequences.

Hope is the only thing that will keep us from being crushed by this spiraling out of control world.

Happy New Year and may many blessings come your way.

Excellent work man been following you for a while now. Will you also take an in-depth look on the 19th Amendment, Women's Suffrage/Voting (since you mentioned it in the article), and feminism in general as people even dissidents overlook its influence/effect in constructing the "globohomo" plantation.

Janice Fiamengo ( The Fiamengo Files: https://youtube.com/playlistlist=PLGFFi6pRCnCdQTe1iG3Tw4Td9jvhY2w74&si=69XXCY1Q6c754ylf) is probably the only dissident I know as of now who has looked in depth in the connection of both feminism and the "globohomo" plantation. I know you did a light and good article about this topic which focused on dating a while back but it would be nice if you would make an in-depth article on feminism and the globohomo.

Keep up the good work man! Godspeed to you from the Philippines!

Thanks Bas! I will take a look at the Fiamengo link. I have an upcoming post on women and how globohomo has inverted the male/female forms which I think you may enjoy. Godspeed to you as well.
