How's it going, America,
Check out our latest episode of The Pod Millennial! This week, I talk to Dr. Chloe Carmichael about who really needs therapy, whether the mental health establishment is actually helping people, and how to become stronger and more resilient without it. New episodes drop every Tuesday! Listen, rate (5 stars, of course!), and subscribe!
Let's get into it:
So this is bonkers: UK Home Secretary Shabana Mahmood admitted that nearly all women who cross illegally into England on little boats from France are raped during the journey. And she lets those rapist men into the UK anyway, gives them transit, housing, cash benefits, and allows them to seek asylum. The government's plan is literally to bring rapists into the country.
On a podcast, Mahmood said, "We're not in control of this border. The sifting of the people that end up in the north of France and are about to get on a dinghy is done by criminals gangs who are also, by the way, people traffickers. You can almost guarantee that every woman that's in the north of France has probably been raped along the journey."
There have been documented cases of women and young girls being raped on the boat while on the water making the dangerous crossing, and the men who have done it are let into Britain anyway. They are given refuge, they apply for asylum, they are given cash benefits.
Mahmood went on to say, "Some of the men too, they've certainly been abused and threatened. That is not the model that should decide whether somebody gets to come to the UK, make this their place of sanctuary, and ultimately become one of us."
This framing from Mahmood is entirely wrong and it's entirely wrong when framed this way in the US, too. "Gets to come," Mahmood said, "ultimately become one of us."
England has seen massive protests against open immigration, mass migration, and unprotected borders. In every case, the police and government side with the foreigners against their own citizens.
The people who are coming to the West from North Africa, the Middle East, and Pakistan are not doing so because they want to "become" Western. They do not want to be English, they do not want to be American, they want to use the hubristic systems of welcome to gain access to benefits, cash, housing, opportunity, and to give nothing in return.
In the UK, these groups have gained political power and paved the way for more infiltration of English culture and society. The newcomers tell the British they are racist and Islamophobic for having pubs, eating during daylight hours of Ramadan, holding screenings of Monty Python and the Holy Grail.
We hear similar sentiments in the US. Those who come and do want to be American, to raise their children to be American, seem far outnumbered by those who don't.
There's one simple fix for this: deny all benefits and government assistance to non-citizens. Those who want to be American, or English, or Western, will still come, they will bring their ingenuity, skill, and work ethic, they will "become one of us." Those who wish to see how much they can take will stay home.
Mahmood has declared her plans to bring more women and children migrants into the UK this fall, and undoubtedly the government will continue to fight their own citizens when those citizens try to stand against it.
