"Democracy" is white people allowing their countries to be taken over by third world invaders and globalist bankers. It's a real mystery why so many white people don't want to save it.
What Douglas Murray calls the "existential tiredness" is a real phenomenon amongst Europeans and their descendents. We've had it too good for too long, and that prosperity creates indolence on the one hand and on the other a sort of all-encompassing guilt, a feeling like we don't really deserve all of this prosperity. And that has been capitalized on and amplified by the globalists and by all the rest who've been so envious of our success, so the guilt trip comes from the outside as well as the inside. Never mind that the rest of the world wouldn't have it as good as they do if it were not for European ingenuity and European ideas. When life gets easy enough, you're able to spend less and less time subsisting and innovating and more time navel gazing, and the result is always impotent resentment and self-hatred.
Discovering a more efficient manufacturing process may have practical value, but reading a philosophy book does not. Often times people who think highly of their own intelligence end up wasting their time trying to organize ideas into abstract systems, but it never amounts to anything. Their time could have been better spent doing something actually productive rather than playing around with thought exercises.

People who have time for philosophy have too much free time on their hands.
Western Civilization was built on philosophy, and our commitment to rational inquiry is what sets us apart.
