Amid a self-created food and energy shortage — Netherlands eliminates thousands of farms — for the environment's purported sake

(Again) illustrating European governments' . . .

 

. . . humanity-burdening lack of brain and good will.

 

The below is taken from the American Experiment:

 

 

The government in the Netherlands is planning to conduct forced buyouts of 3,000 Dutch farms with the intention of closing them down to cut nitrogen emissions in half to meet the country’s climate goals.

 

As many as 11,200 farms will have to close, and another 17,600 farmers will have to significantly downsize their livestock operations to meet these draconian targets.

 

The plan could not come at a worse time because grocery prices are skyrocketing, and world leaders are warning about an oncoming food crisis caused by supply disruptions caused by the war in Ukraine and rising input costs resulting from the energy crisis.

 

In fact, the United Nations notes that the number of people affected by hunger has “more than doubled in the past three years, and almost one million people are living in famine conditions, with starvation and death a daily reality.”

 

Shutting down Dutch farms will make matters substantially worse because the Netherlands is the second-largest agricultural exporter, by value, in the world, with the USA being number one.

Meanwhile, idiots-led Germany . . .

 

. . . still cowers under American attack.

 

Deutschland, you will recall (like most of the rest of the European Union) eagerly laps up the United States' pillaging attack on European industry and living standards.

 

Recall that, after starting the Ukraine War, the core perpetrators of global instability — NATO and the US — dog-slobberingly kept it going.

 

And further, rabidly encouraged Europeans to sanction Russia by depriving themselves of access to irreplaceably inexpensive Russian energy.

 

What happened afterward was entirely predictable. Energy shortages gnawed German manufacturing's energy-frail feet. And Europe's home fuel prices escalated.

 

As a result, Germany began deindustrializing. With, of course, the United States becoming richer. As it sold the complaisantly feeble-minded Germans, expensive American gas and welcomed fleeing German businesses to our (equally poorly governed) shores.

 

Take that, Russia.

 

To ensure that the Germans did not backtrack from their gutless submission to American enslavement, the United States — directly or indirectly — blew up Germany's Nord Stream (Russian gas-carrying) pipelines.

 

The obsequiously authority-worshipping Germans enthusiastically took these hostile acts up their hind ends.

 

They even began evading their own anti-Russia sanctions by buying what originated as Russian gas — but re-routed and re-labeled (through geographically intermediate nations) — at grossly inflated prices.

 

Germany's mantra apparently now having become:

 

 

We will mindlessly kill ourselves.

 

And pay our battered wazoos for the privilege of doing it.

 

 

One further example of German airheadedness . . .

 

. . . is Chancellor Olaf Scholz.

 

Consider the following (characteristically obtuse) statement from him:

 

 

Among the many miscalculations that Putin has made is his bet that the invasion of Ukraine would strain relations among his adversaries.

 

In fact, the reverse has happened: the EU and the transatlantic alliance are stronger than ever before.

 

Nowhere is this more evident than in the unprecedented economic sanctions that Russia is facing. It was clear from the outset of the war that these sanctions would have to be in place for a long time, as their effectiveness increases with each passing week.

 

Putin needs to understand that not a single sanction will be lifted should Russia try to dictate the terms of a peace deal.

The above extracts will be even more impressively stupid, if you read the entirety of his pretentiously propagandizing essay in Foreign Affairs.

 

 

Contrary to the delusional German chancellor

 

A self-defending Russia will be dictating Ukraine's peace terms.

 

Warmongering Euro-American strategic and tactical imbecility has, in indisputable fact, strengthened the Russian Federation. As well as markedly improved Russia's diplomatic standing in the world.

 

While simultaneously, (a) putting the Pressure of Disintegration on western Europe and (b) economically death-lancing the United States' imperial prestige and automatically achieved influence.

 

 

Historically remarkably

 

All of the above was accomplished by the mere act of Russia defending itself against a West-installed, financed, militarily supported and dictated-to — Ukrainian Nazi —  regime.

 

It will eventually prove impossible to put a happy propaganda face upon the West's so blazingly obvious self-destruction.

 

When a rotten empire implodes from its maggot-infested brain down, it dies.

 

This now obvious result becomes even less appealing (to those negatively affected by it) when, as in this case, psychiatrically unbalanced idiots — like Scholz, the current EU leadership, and their American neocon-neoliberal war-slurping counterparts — did all the above slaughter-instigating, nation self-killing on their own initiatives.

 

 

What group is ultimately responsible for this sad-happy disaster?

 

Many analysts suspect that the above-addressed economy and population-harming stupidities are the work of the Davos Elite.

 

A clique of malevolently clueless (but so-very-rich) demons, who completely control of the collective West's oligarchic governments.

 

Perhaps the Davos suspicion is accurate. Not that it very much matters. Suicidally passive populations debatably deserve to be escorted away from the Cosmic Genome's bubbling existence.

 

But still . . .

 

 

The moral? — Brandish your cudgel

 

Certainly, I can see the Darwinian justice of being (literally) murdered by a demonstrably superior species.

 

But not by the viciously scheming (usually porky) cowards, who rule the West.

 

It is this yellow-bellied Elitist Group, which — morally and intellectually speaking — deserves to be axed.
