Why I'm optimistic 👇 For twelve years I've been banging on about this and now people are finally seeing it, evolving communism, cultural Marxism or whatever label you choose, it's all the same. The EU was never just about trade. It's a communist style structure. Centralised control. Unelected people at the top telling elected people at the bottom what they can do. You vote one way, they ignore you, and carry on anyway. How many times have we seen that? People ask how did we get here? It didn't happen overnight. It's generational. Go back to the sixties. You had all those left wing students demonstrating. CND, sit-ins, banners, shouting down anyone who disagreed. At the time we thought it was just students being students. Those indoctrinated students? They became the professors. They became the teachers, the lecturers, the BBC producers, the civil servants, the judges, the Archbishops, the people running the charities. The EU commission, NATO bosses, NGOs, UN officials etc And they taught the next generation. And that generation taught the next one. That's three generations now. There is a famous saying from the German student leader Rudi Dutschke. He talked about t The Long March through the institutions. And that's exactly what happened. You don't need to attack a public building with violence . That's too obvious. You just need to attack all the things within it. You attack the family - tell people the family is outdated, that mothers shouldn't be at home, that children belong to the state. You create such a costly environment, where buying bricks and mortar is impossible, a family today can't but a house with two wages, that keeps the mother at work, the child in third party hands for 8 hours a day in formative years. The hand that rocks the cradle rules the world, who's rocking your cradle. You attack the church - tell people faith is bigotry, close the churches, laugh at Christians while protecting religions with very like-minded controlling doctrines. You attack the schools - stop teaching history properly, stop teaching right from wrong, teach children to be ashamed of their own country. Encourage people not to work, to be dependent on the state. If the state controls you're income, it controls what you spend it on . You can never get out, or grow. You attack law and borders - tell people that a country that controls its border is racist. By the time you have done all that, you still have the same buildings - Parliament, the courts, the schools, the churches - but they mean something completely different. They have been hollowed out from the inside. That is what the EU is. It's the perfect vehicle for it. Laws made far away, that you can't vote out, that overrule your own courts and your own Parliament. It's control by committee. That's not democracy. That's communism by another name. Even worse quangos that control the news you see, the products you buy, the food you eat. Additives that benefit a few fed to the whole Nation despite health issues I voted Brexit because I saw it. A lot of us did. Some places voted 70% for less immigration and for control back, and we were told we were wrong. But now with AI we can look it up ourselves. We don't have to take their word for it anymore. We can follow the money, see who funds what, who sits on what board, and we can share it with each other. They can't hide it anymore, Musk opened The Twitter Files and showed the world what's really going on, we've information is power we have direct access to it and have grown in strength. Their Long March has been uninterrupted for decades, be patient, keep talking , keep sharing, they'll never reach the finish line. That's why I'm optimistic ❤️ .
