With everything happening right now, one thing is almost certain: globalism and the European Union are going to collapse, and sooner than anyone in Brussels is willing to admit. So let's stop mourning the old world and start designing the next one. Here are my proposals. The Ten Commandments of the Western Renaissance I. Every people is sovereign in its own home. It alone decides its immigration policy, holds its borders, and sets the rules of assimilation. No supranational body will ever decide in its place who becomes one of its own. II. Merit becomes the law again. Hierarchy is built on competence, work, and results. Not quotas, not networks, not administrative castes. III. Every nation's culture is a sacred treasure. Multiculturalism doesn't make cultures coexist. It dissolves them all. The only way to protect the world's diversity is to protect the uniqueness of each people. IV. Optimism is a duty. No more prophets of degrowth who for fifty years have told us to be ashamed of existing, producing, and dreaming. The future is not a threat. It is a conquest. V. Speech is free. A First Amendment for the entire West. No state, no platform, no committee has the right to decide what a citizen may think or say. VI. A free people is a people that can defend itself. A Second Amendment for the West: the right to own a firearm and learn to use it. A freedom you cannot defend is just a permission. VII. Abundant energy is the foundation of power. Massive nuclear, cheap energy, produced on our own soil. A civilization that rations its energy has already begun to die. VIII. Family is the first pillar of the nation. A civilization that no longer has children has no future left to defend. Birth rates become a national priority. IX. No transfer of sovereignty without the people. Never again a treaty imposed after a No vote. Every surrender of power goes through a referendum, and the people can always take back what they gave. X. We build. Factories, power plants, rockets, AI, semiconductors. The West becomes once again the civilization that builds, invents, and sets out to conquer the stars.

Globalism explained to an 8-year-old. 🚨 If you're Western, read this. Understand it. Then explain it to everyone around you. 🚨 Imagine a game. In the original version there were two teams: the bosses and the workers. The rule was simple. The bosses are bad, the workers are good, and the game only ends when the bosses lose everything and a central authority runs it all. That game was called communism. It was played everywhere, and it failed everywhere. Workers got richer under capitalism, not poorer. The Soviet Union collapsed. Game over, right? No. The players didn't change the game. They changed the teams. Today we call it globalism: the belief that the answer to every problem is more centralized, supranational, unaccountable control, decided by people you never voted for. Same game, new coat of paint. And the coat changes depending on the audience. The climate coat. The new villain is the factory, growth, the guy who drives a car or takes a plane. The solution is always the same: less freedom, more control, fewer people deciding for themselves. Notice that the answer is never nuclear or innovation. It's always restriction. Degrowth is collectivism painted green. The gender and sexuality coat. A movement that once asked to be left alone, and won, got captured by a theory that says the family, biology and the very idea of a norm are oppressive structures to dismantle. Gay people are not the problem. Most just want to live their lives. The problem is a theory that uses them as a battering ram against the family. The woke coat. The same grid applied to everything. Every relationship becomes oppressor versus oppressed. Merit becomes oppression. Speech becomes violence. Your history becomes a crime. The minorities coat. Every group gets assigned a role in the play, and that's where the contradiction becomes absurd. The same activists who champion LGBT rights ally with political Islam, which would criminalize those same people. Why? Because the ideology doesn't need coherence. It only needs an "oppressed" category to aim at the West. And Muslims who came here to live freely are not the enemy. They are often the first victims of Islamists. Same game. Same grid. A different coat every decade. So the real question isn't your skin color, your religion or who you love. It's this: do you think in that grid or not? Do you see the world as a war between oppressors and oppressed, to be settled by tearing down what works? And here many people fall into the dumbest trap there is: antisemitism. They go looking for a hidden group pulling the strings. It's garbage. It's false. And it's exactly the move that discredits everyone fighting this ideology. There is no secret cabal. There is an idea. And ideas are beaten with better ideas. We are at a turning point. The West built the freest, richest and most tolerant societies in human history: rule of law, free speech, the scientific method, the dignity of the individual. That is what this grid wants to dismantle, and it only works as long as nobody names it. So name it. Share this. Explain it to your kids, your parents, your friends. A Marxist in the mind is still a Marxist, whatever color the coat. The West is worth defending.

Yesterday I was talking with an economist. A genuinely sharp guy. We ended up agreeing on a conclusion that isn't comfortable: Europe and the West are down to two scenarios. Scenario one: communism gets defeated within the next 5 years. We finally do what has to be done on immigration and on the economy. It will be hard, really hard. But better a horrible ending than horror without end. Scenario two: communism wins. And right behind it, most likely, Islamic tyranny. Not in 50 years. Soon after. There is no in-between. No "it'll sort itself out," no lukewarm third way where everyone keeps their little comfort zone. What fascinates me is that the vast majority of people don't see this at all. They're living through this period as if it were just another political cycle. But there's good news. The people who've been sounding the alarm for 20 years were right. They were called crazy, doomers, prophets of decline. And every month, reality proves them a little more right. The faster people realize this, the further ahead we get. Waking up is already half the battle.
