[The Rise of the West] For years I've been predicting it. With absolute confidence, I've been claiming that its arrival is a certainty. So why do I feel so surprised, and a trifle disoriented that it is now happening? What is "it"? It's The Happening. I didn't invent this expression. I heard a couple of people use it at the recent New York Forum. Perhaps "The Convergence" would be more appropriate. Perhaps I could even give in to my Heideggerian vice and call it The Event (Das Ereignis). But I like The Happening.I think you already know what I mean, but let's make it explicit. For years I have been maintaining, along with others, that the truth cannot be suppressed forever, that the whole edifice of lies would eventually crack and the Establishment crumble, that our people would rise up, etc. I predicted that at a certain point we would see things begin to "tip" as more and more individuals spoke forbidden truths. This is now happening. The Washington Post recently published a breathless article (by a non-White reporter) about how the Brexit vote has "normalized racism," by making the British more open -- horrors! -- about expressing their desire to "get their country back."
Lengthy and thought provoking.
