A disturbing experience.
Two days ago I had an upsetting encounter. We were having Sunday lunch at the house of my wife's son, and the son of his girlfriend and I got into a political discussion. This young man is about 20, has not been to university, and is a very pleasant person. Like most of his generation, his secondary education was very spotty (we live in the UK, yet he was unsure who Cromwell was), and he doesn't read much. Our conversation turned to the world situation, and he quickly opined that the world's problems were caused by 'the Jews'. And ... I'm not making this up ... also the Freemasons. And the Vatican. All apparently working together. He did NOT have an elaborated theory for his beliefs, nor any supposed evidence. He had picked up these beliefs from social media, mainly, it appeared, from YouTube. I want to emphasize that he is a perfectly normal, nice person. He didn't have any particular conclusions to draw from his beliefs, regarding what should be done about this conspiracy. The emotional atmosphere while talking to him was like what you would expect if you met someone who believed some eccentric but not insane theory regarding human history: say, that the Vikings settled in Michigan and remained for several generations before leaving. So.... now I've got to change his mind. I was careful not to scoff at him, and in fact praised him for being interested in what's happening in the world. I doubt he would read any books I gave him, but perhaps there are videos that could get him started on the right path. Or other material? I would be grateful for any suggestions.
How screwed is Europe?
This is something that worries me lots. The boundaryless immigration towards European countries, the utter fail to adress that by governments, the rise in criminality and agression towards women, the attempt to erase native cultures and believes.. The apparant EU push for more destabilisation and the woke-rethoric, the NATO call to arms, while a decline in Education, decline of GDP, decline of safety, standstill of innovations, housing shortage, and a steep rise in livingscosts, ... To name a few.. How screwed is Europe?

The "109 Countries" Lie: Debunked
Neo-Nazis claim Jews were "expelled from 109 countries." The ADL traces this lie to Bible Believer's Church in Australia—a Holocaust-denying hate group. Their methodology? Count cities as countries, count France 6 times, throw in ancient wars, and you get... 109. Let's do the honest count: Medieval/Early Modern Europe: 15-18 actual country-wide expulsions: - England 1290 (Edward I's Edict) - Spain 1492 (Alhambra Decree) - Portugal 1496 (Manuel I) - France 1182, 1254, 1306, 1322, 1359, 1394 - Hungary 1360 - Austria 1420-1421, 1669-1670 - Bavaria 1442, 1551 - Papal States 1569, 1593 - Naples 1288, 1495, 1510 - Sicily 1493, Navarre 1498 - Visigothic Spain 612 Arab/Muslim World: 10-13 total: - Early: Medina 7th century, Almohades 12th century (Morocco, Algeria, Tunisia, Muslim Spain), Yemen 1679 - Modern 1947-1972: Iraq (120,000), Egypt (75,000+), Libya (35,000), Yemen again (49,000), Algeria (140,000), Morocco (265,000), Tunisia (100,000), Syria (30,000) - Honest total: 25-30 across 2,700 years. One expulsion every 90-100 years across the entire planet. Now watch the fraud: Frankfurt (1614) — They call it a "country." It was a Free Imperial City *inside* the Holy Roman Empire. Not a nation. Nuremberg (1499) — Same thing. City, not country. Vienna (1669) — Habsburg capital. Part of Austria, which they *already counted separately*. France appears SIX TIMES (1182, 1254, 1306, 1322, 1359, 1394). That's ONE country having a cycle of expulsion-readmission-expulsion. They count it as six "countries." Bavaria appears FOUR TIMES (1276, 1442, 1551, 1701). Same duchy, different centuries. They count each as a separate "expulsion." Babylonian Captivity (587 BCE)? That was a military conquest—soldiers destroying Jerusalem and taking prisoners of war. Not an expulsion decree. Roman suppressions (73 CE, 135 CE)? Military defeats after Jewish revolts. Not government policy expelling Jews from lands. Still think 109 is real? Wikipedia lists EVERY displacement event in Jewish history—ancient wars, medieval expulsions, Crusade massacres, pogroms, the Holocaust, refugee movements, everything—and gets ~90 total entries across 2,700 years.
