Light it.

You lose more ground, more freedom, and more of your sense of self, every day.

Later generations will not even know to fight.

No different than in the US.

The upper class is showing the same disdain to their lower classes that they used to give to their fellow Englishmen in the Colonies in 1775.

This analysis touches on something vital: the growing disconnect between the political elites and the populace. As the mainstream political class doubles down on identity politics, wokeism, and globalism, they’ve created an environment where traditional values—rooted in national identity, cultural cohesion, and faith—are treated as relics of a bygone era. The consequences of this are now visible across the West, where the very fabric of social unity is unraveling.

What’s increasingly evident is that political discourse has shifted from a debate about policies to a battle over the survival of a national soul. The elites have embraced a cosmopolitan, post-national worldview, one that dismisses historical traditions and cultural continuity in favor of global governance and the erasure of borders. However, this approach leaves a void—a void that is being filled by a new wave of dissident thought, one that recognizes the importance of culture, heritage, and community.

We’re seeing an emerging recognition that the state isn’t simply a structure to provide services or enforce laws—it’s an extension of the people themselves. If the government loses touch with the cultural and spiritual core of its citizens, the very legitimacy of the system is called into question. This isn’t a crisis of policy; it’s a crisis of identity.

The question, then, is how to move forward. The old conservative guard has failed to defend the nation from the forces of cultural erosion. What comes next might very well be a new form of political alignment, one that acknowledges the importance of rootedness, national pride, and, ultimately, a renewed commitment to defending the things that matter most—family, faith, and the survival of a coherent, meaningful identity in an increasingly fragmented world.

This is why the English need to remember their ancestors like many of us Francs do. We Celts must band together with you, not against one another if we are to throw off the shackles of the corpos that dominate us.

Take heart and remember the examples of those who came before you Carl Benjamin; Hereward, Harold II, Aelfred, Wellington they all had strength and all had courage in spades.

I write all the time about fictional and literary and historic heroes on my stack, along with fantasy fiction as the fantasy seems far more attractive to me than the reality these days. But it'd be nice to see some heroes rise, some examples of old Northern Courage, to match old Celtic Honour beyond those in my fantasy stories.

Bonne chance mes amis, et prenez cœurs car la France, l'Ecosse, l'Irlande et plein d'autres pays sont avec vous! On est des frères, et va conquérir cette adversaire comme on l'a fait avec toutes autres qui nous ont défiés! Sorry if I did not know how to word it in English, je suis Francophone/Québécois so there's times when English slips away from me.
