I know I’m not the only one who feels that this years Christmas is hollow and artificial.

We are supposed to celebrate Christ–the prince of peace–even as our elite make a mockery of that with their embrace of genocide, bombing and mass murder.

But it is not just Christmas that’s become hollow and meaningless; our entire Western culture is toxic, where the US with its European allies tries to forcibly maintain empire, all while maintaining a forced semblance of civilization and “rule based” order.

In one of the darkest years in memory, rather than succumb to cynicism and despair I must believe that there are good people out there and it really is darkest before the dawn.
