My dear, this sounds like paranoid hysteria to my ears. However thinking deeper one might find truth behind these apparently preposterous claims of totalitarism. It’s an universal truth, well pointed by John Grey – the one you cited lambasting atheism, wrongfully in parts I might add – in his book, Straw Dogs, that totalitarian regimes will never cease to exist as long mankind is still around. History would be, under these terms, nothing more than a cycle, where periods of opression are followed of periods of freedom and so on. Looking at history as a whole, this seems just right.

I don’t, nevertheless, have the temerity to call the end of Western Civilization as something soon to come. Nor do I have the temerity, or even foolishness, to call for immediate action, since this will only create room for more disasters. One must assess the current world situation with great care and deal, very smartly, with it. Yet, there’s no one who can do it, no group, no nation. Whatever it is on the track to happen, will happen.
