Europe: Making Totalitarianism Great Again

As if this is a surprise for a post-Christian world so like the evil Roman empire of the beginning of the Christian faith. But as with Christ's Word on which his Church is founded, so too his true Church is a mighty, impervious anvil that ultimately wears out many arrogant & foolish dictators' hammers (e.g. the USSR & Albania to name just two) as it will the EU's. Only to God glory!

It's clear that the powers that be don't even adhear to their own laws & charters unless it suits them!
It's clear that there is no law except what they want it to be at the moment they want it to be...
& that my friends is a dictatorship!
The populations of Europe NEVER voted or agreed to be part of this abominable Union. It was forced on them without concent so what do you expect?

It is becoming more and more like a dictatorship in the EU. Telling the media what they can or cannot write is straight out of USSR and Nazi Germany. Even more amazing that the 'leaders' of EU stood up for Charlie Hebdo not very long ago. The BBC is and CNN, to name but two, are already compliant as they never feature anything critical of migrants and especially Muslim migrants. Only 'success' stories are to be heard there. All I can say is thank 'god' UK is leaving the EU dictatorship where freedom of speech is being stamped out by unelected bureaucrats.

The truth has a habit of being a pain in the neck, especially to the incompetent and must be silenced. Ironic really that we have just celebrated 500 years since the Reformation sent shock waves across Europe we are now facing the same attempts to silence the truth. And they call themselves progressive!!!

Europeans traded 6 million Jews for 20 million Arabs to convince themselves they were cured of hatred.
They aren't cured.
The more things change, the more they stay the same.

Well, it looks like the Marxist leaders continue their push towards totalitarianism. This is the problem when "leaders" are not elected or responsible to citizens. Destroy the European family, community, and nation. The muslims are their weapon of choice. Good luck Europe.

Totalitarian regimes tend to use censorship and persecution of dissent in order to hide that their policies can't stand honest criticism.

Such criticism could spark a movement that would challenge the status quo, and could eventually make them lose control.

EU is, unfortunately, replicating this exactly for the very same reason.

how can civilized people give up their most precious rights of freedom, individuality and control of their lives to power mongers without a murmur of dissent. the eurotrash are not the self proclaimed elite they credit themselves as being. in the marketplace of ideas where free exchange is a continual and critical flow of information and debate, they have nothing to sell. instead, they are seeking ways to take power by force. first, through this despicable notion of silencing genuine opposition and if they are not stopped, by treachery, force of arms and street thugs just like every tin pot dictatorship and monstrous totalitarian evil that pockmarks human history.

All socialist political entities must control the information reaching the public through the education and news industries. They cannot allow information that conflicts with their propaganda, and induces people to question the official line, or allow the public to know what they're doing, or why, and what their eventual goals are. Hardly anyone would support the EU if they understood that it intends to become the EUSSR, suppress their national governments, identities and cultures, and rule. The public must be directed into the approved opinion -- they can't be permitted to think for themselves.

The EU is rapidly becoming a "third world" entity. Every day they more resemble the old East Germany, than they do free countries such as the United States, Australia, New Zealand, Singapore, Israel, India and the like. Soon, Europe will be lost to the free world entirely. Get European tourism out of your system now, before the EU degenerates into a socialist dictatorship, making it unsafe to go to, or to express yourself, if you are there.

With technology displacing labor at a high and rapidly increasing rate and government debt growing without bound why are open borders and massive immigration by low and unskilled immigrants a good thing for the EU economy? Why are these people good for the EU economy but not good for the economies of their home countries?

Wouldn't it be better for the EU and other advanced economies to help the countries that are the sources of all this immigration become better places to live?

Once again, we SEE appeasement towards an authoritarian style governance blooming in Europe. Historical patterns? History repeating itself? Perhaps! We MUST watch diligently and turn on the "engines of war", and idle a bit. Hopefully, we can respond faster and better than we did before...avoiding the huge expanded arenas of war and the loss of human lives and the progress or achievements of mankind!

Has anyone thought where we will store the great "artwerks" this time?

I can't remember the reference but went like this: capitalism leads to socialism, which leads to communism.

We're at the communism level. But for some reason, Liberals/Democrats have always courted communism. Think back to your history lessons on Democrats prior to establishing the secret ballot. Democrats would openly threaten, beat up, intimidate, or kill men who voted differently to their Democrat "comrades". If they found out that you voted Republican, you'd be risking your life, your wife's safety, and your future since they'd burn your house down or your business if you owned a business, etc.

This is the true nature of Democrats/Liberals, sadly. They've been abusing power since they became a legal part of democracy. In their minds, democracy means " if we get bored in we can hurt everyone who tries to go another way to our agendas. That'll teach them to control my choices." They're broken. They can't be fixed. They can only be corrected by similar means to what they use. Think about that. Only Democrats and Liberals are being deceived by one another, no worries. Unfortunately, our better judgement is not being respected and only when the majority of us vote them out of office will we see this abuse of power end.

Well, the EU's focus on political correctness regardless of circumstances which display the opposite of "fake" positive spin on immigration and encroachment of Islam and their sharia law--is probably there to stay. The average citizens have fooled around too long to combat it. Also, many of the countries have outlawed weapons, so the people are unarmed. Now, people cannot speak up without paying price of imprisonment, or other punishments. And we in America are going to have to pay attention and be assertive, or we're falling in the same direction as the EU.

When Donald Trump disparaged certain nations and stated it was not in the best interests of the the US to receive immigrants from these nations, the progressives and reverse racist cultural Marxist jumped all over his remarks. Perhaps he should rethink this topic. The real undesirables are AUTHORITARIANS. Authoritarianism is being pushed by PROGRESSIVES AND MUSLIMS. Our vetting should seek to identify and welcome classic liberals who subscribe to the Constitution and exclude AUTHORITARIANS.

Being keen to avoid any apparent adherence to Christian teaching, Current EU practices ignore the realities of human nature and the levels of depravity to which the human mind can descend. The EU seemingly believes, as the Hippie generation preached years ago, that all the world needs is more love. And whilst that may well be true that we need more love; history also reminds us that human nature does not function as neatly as hoped.

Sometimes fake news is fake news.
It should be up to the members of society to decide for themselves.
The handling of the Russian collusion and the fall out from Hillary Clinton bleaching her computer having blackberry's smashed with hammers have raised not only whether or not mainstream news outlets owned by super rich DNC leaning persons should raise questions about who should own our news agencies.
NPR and PBS have had top tier executives exposed for antisemitic feelings.
At the same time Helen Thomas had her emotional moment.
On one affiliate station a radical Islamic Imam in the USA threatened that if Obama was not elected because voters thought he was a Muslim there would be violence. When did federally subsidized news become a bully pulpit to make threats to determine elections?
Fake News or more correctly politically biased news is nothing new.
But what has made fke news a greater menace in the USA is when there are concerns about the DOJ participating in Fasa warrants that are obtained under false pretenses and how the mainstream press covers it. Accusations investigators in the FBI were in collusion with the democratic party. These are the concerns of Americans.
In my mind the first move down that path began when Obama and the DOJ orchestrated moves to declare matters f free speech Islamophobia. Mention of radical Islam penalized and persons criticizing Islam or made it a factor in on going global terrorism penalized. The investigation into General Flynn an example in my mid of a politically motivated act to take down Iran's greatest critic. And then tried to inflate the net of contact with Russians to take down the administration the news media an agent of the DNC treated as illegal.

The Trudeau government in Canada has a plan in place to subsidize mainstream media, effectively buying their support. This is in addition to the $1.5 billion per year government propaganda arm, the CBC.

While not yet actually blocking non-compliant websites guilty of wrongthink, this is a disturbing step in the same direction.

It seems that the "Democratic EU" will go to any and all lengths to hide the fact that their decisions over immigration, particularly from Muslim countries has been an enormous mistake.
Countries all across the EU now need to spend millions on security in order to prevent terrorist attacks on their populations. The people that they are supposed to protect, are being let down and abandoned, in favour of a policy that, they, state, is combatting what is considered to be "fake news". In order to do this, they have come up with guidelines for journalists and newsgroups that are in reality directions on what and who they are able to report on. This can only be described as Dictatorship. Normally, this action is taken in 3rd world countries and places such as Russia, where any opposition is denied the right to an opinion and are denied any voice by media outlets. The BBC, Sky News, in Britain, are only too happy and eager to comply as it plays to their narrative and suits their agenda.
We've seen the erosion of free speech particularly over the last 5 years or so, in fact, ever since the mass movement of people began. Why do our Western leaders want to accept so many, and why Muslims? It's almost as if they feel the need to reduce, the world's populations, by bringing civil war to our doorsteps. Whatever happened to the idea that we have the right to question our leader's policies, and in return be given a reason for such policies? What we face now is a state where the leaders do as they wish and are above being questioned, all those who oppose are shut down and denied a voice. How much longer are people going to put up with this nonsense from the EU and media outlets! We are having our lives turned upside down and having to tolerate Muslims who have a free hand to do as they like. We are supposed to keep quiet, wait for the next terrorist attack that will inevitably kill and maim people, and then stand as one with Muslims who in all probability know the culprits but feel the need to put on a show of unity with the people who have been affected by their actions. You can always rely on the media to come up with a good story, after all, they have been printing lies for centuries in order to profit!

"No hate in this home" You have seen this sign or similar ones popping up. That home is for letting in Islamic terror. This sounding good sign is the height of stupidity. That is the whole of the E.U. today. Jews! Get out while you still can, please.
