When reality imitates fiction
We often cite the prophetic works of George Orwell when we look at the symptoms and consequences of the authoritarian states of the left. However, there is another book that predicted what just happened in the Spanish territory of Ceuta recently.
In 1973 French author Jean Raspail wrote a novel entitled Le Camp des Saints. Believe it or not it was about the destruction of western civilization via a mass migration from the third world into France. It emanates from India via a massive armada of ships called the “Armada of the Last Chance "which lands on France's southern coast. The French state, which has been emasculated by liberal guilt and humanitarian ideals, fumbles and eventually succumbs.
For those interested in all the details, what once seemed implausible, now seems all too real.
All the ingredients for the disaster are present right here in America as well. We are a divided country, and we too have a radical left which opened our borders for 4 years. What happens when the democrats are again in power?

For American lefties demography is the answer to their election dilemma.
Gotta love fiction.
Just come across this today:
Now that is the level of tolerance we've all come to know from the Democrats and the left.
Some people would say that for American lefties. Donald Trump is "the answer to their election dilemma".
(Particularly his tendency to continually start wars . . .and increase the cost of living due to those, tariffs, and other policies)
What war did he start?
I get it, you can't answer the question. Not that I'm surprised.
tell us what it's like to serve on the losing side of middle east wars that were started by republican POTUS's exploiting the fear of weapons of mass destruction ...
“…middle east wars that were started…”
…with no coherent strategy, no thought to secure alliances, nothing but vague promises and meaningless threats and ‘led’ by ineffective, insecure, inured psychopaths. What could go wrong?
So you can't answer the question either and decided to deflect to nonsense.
actually I'm continuing to mock those without critical thinking skills, since the answer is obvious to those that still have them ...

Now this is much closer to a "banned book" than those "banned books" that your corporate chain places front and center in their display of "banned books"
When it was published, they were calling Jean Raspail all sorts of names.
I wonder how many people actually even read books anymore (banned or otherwise)?
If the number of posts on the "Books" group articles is any indication, I would say very few.
Why are you posting a glow of a book that is widely described as racist? Do you like being a punching bag ?
He wasn't a racist. He was a prophet.
Nobody is afraid of lefties calling them names anymore.
this is from the wikipedia summary of the book -
Do you agree that the book is racist?
Oh ya, those "white nationalists," that nobody ever sees.
When you promote a book like The Camp Of The Saints you are skating on thin ice yourself.
Wikipedia is once again in the midst of political controversy. Prominent conservative figures, from Elon Musk to Tucker Carlson, have accused the platform of liberal bias, and this time, one of its own founders agrees.
Larry Sanger, who co-created Wikipedia in 2001, now says the site has been 'hijacked by the left,' reigniting a debate about neutrality, ideology, and control over the internet's most influential reference source.
Sanger, who left Wikipedia in 2002, has become an outspoken critic of the project he helped design. In a recent essay for The Free Press titled 'I Founded Wikipedia. Here's How to Fix It', he argues that the site has been overtaken by ideologues posing as neutral editors.
'It's been hijacked by the left,' Sanger wrote. 'Anonymous editors now shape content to fit a liberal worldview rather than reflect the full spectrum of facts.'
Conservatives Slam Wikipedia as 'Woke' And Its Own Co-Founder Agrees: 'It's Been Hijacked by the Left'
The most destructive people are those with white guilt. [deleted][✘]
but international pressure from the new governments, isolating it as a rogue state for not opening its borders, along with internal pro-migrant elements, force it to capitulate as well
Seems like a pretty good encapsulation of the current Democratic party's goals, written 50 years ago in Europe. .
Do you have any idea how many times the word "white" in direct reference to skin color (race) appears in the book? I do. It is many dozens of times.
I've never read it. Is every book that mentions "black" and references black skin color racist too? I'm not sure why using the word "white" makes it racist.
The point of the book is that non whites are going to destroy white civilization. Whether one is sympathetic or not to the premise , I dont think it takes an Einstein to see this as racist.
Why don't you start with Invisible Man by Ralph Ellison and let us know.
I read it. I guess, under John's standard. It's incredibly racist.
It's not thin ice, its 7 fathoms deep. There is an obvious 'white knight collective' around here somedays and frankly these nasty shriveled bleached white assholes don't even try to hide it anymore now that their dear Leader gives them cover.

Calling racists decent people is a despicable act.
Woke = Aware. That's why the reich wing hates, "woke", because they want their people as stupid as possible.
Much like those racist dog whistles that only leftists hear.

The ever elusive "white Nationalists."
Where the hell are they?
All over their imagination. Remember that's their boogie man.
That's what worries me when I walk the streets of Boston at night ... it's those "white nationalists."
Just to put a bow on it, the book portrays this invasion as something that is happening to WHITE people, not countries. I dont know about where you come from, but in my sphere of knowledge that is RACIST.
Under your standard, if a Japanese author writes a fictional book about the Japan being invaded by white countries, is it racist?
I would think so.

It has been fun .... like old times.
I have errands to run ...
Later
Great movie.
Thinking of the movies, how many times have I posted that not only does art imitate life, but often enough life imitates art.
