In my recent blogs I’ve argued that Western civilization will succumb to societalcide accelerating circa 2021 and continuing for decades a financial attrition that plausibly eventually grinds Westerners back to a destitute, homeless Dark Age subsistence. My stance currently is to make some alternative plans instead being paralyzed in inaction to sink with the Titanic analogous to a deer-in-the-headlights.

If you’ve already read the above blogs, I suggest reading any new comments I have posted below each of the blogs for important elaborations. I also augmented the main content in the above linked blogs up to 48 hours after I initially published them.
We’ve since noted that the overt homosexuality and other perversions of Western Christianity in the TV commercials for the holiday college (aka university) football games as depicted in my blog Societalcide Decadence in Western TV Commercials, were not prevalent during the NFL (adult, professional league) playoffs I watched. Thus the perverted market is more with the youth, not the Gen X and Boomers. This portends a horrific future for U.S.A. as the radicalized youth come to dominate the electorate circa ~2033 or 2036.
Also the U.S.A. is being culturally merged with Latin America, so the future of the U.S.A. is:

[…] Mexican Cartels are based on a revival of the old religion from before the Spanish conquest, or something rather like it.
In Brazil, entering or leaving a gang is a religious conversion, but I don’t know what they are converting to when they join the gang, or what they convert from when the apostacize from the gang faith to Christianity.
[…] As they started becoming less youth gang and more organized crime, they also shaped up their empty hollywood devil worship, and merged it with an amalgamation of other religious practices popular among criminals, like the santa muerte cult, which is also a thing among regular catholics, the voodoo like quimbanda sacrificial and necromancy cult coming from the black slaves, and brujo witchcraft.
But they largely improvise and go for the darkest and most striking displays of savagery, there is no old “core tradition”, they invented their religion.
Worship that consists of “the darkest and most striking displays of savagery”isan ancient Mexican tradition.Santa Muerte is not Catholic – she has long been suppressed as pagan by the Catholic Church – therefore an old god, one whose religion they have been trying to suppress since the conquest.
If the Church now thinks she is Catholic, that is because
Pope Francis hates God, hates, Christ, and hates Christians. He recently held an earth worship ceremony featuring an Amazonian earth goddess, so the opinion of today’s Catholic Church on who are old gods is unlikely to be reliable. Old Catholic Church was rather more certain about what was Catholic and what was not.It has been standard operating procedure for Christianity since the beginning to take some of the old gods on board as saints, the nicer and more prosocial Gods, or at least less nasty and anti social Gods, giving them a new names, and casting the nastier ones out as demons. Quetzalcoatl was taken on board as Saint Thomas. But Santa Muerte was not taken on board as a saint, because her worship was always dark and savage. Definitely demonic […]
Armstrong blogged The Decline & Fall of Religion?:
While we are currently in the Seventh Wave 309.6-year cycle following the birth of Christ, from a pure cyclical perspective, the next turning point in 2072 may be a significant religious change. What comes, can only be subject to speculation. We have completed six waves of 309.6 years. The Seventh is where major change and conflict will be unleashed. However, if we just look at Christianity, from the Edit of 313AD decriminalizing this religion, then 2 x 8.6 = 17.2. Therefore, 1720 years from 313AD brings us to 2033 which aligns with the Sixth Wave of the ECM – 2032.
[…]
Further confirmation that we are in a major Private Wave is that the belief systems also shifts not merely away from government (Public v Private) but also from formalized religion and even sports. The evidence is very clear that church memberships have been declining. The various church membership data reflected the steady decline from the 76% level to the 50% level. There has been rising discontent even within the Catholic Church over the left-wing statement of Pope Francis. He has been alienating many Catholics. He has adopted the climate change agenda and supported the United Nations in this anti-industrialization movement. He has also adopted the Piketty argument against capitalism supporting the Marxist view of economic inequality. Many feel he has abandoned the faith since one of the Ten Commandments is thou shall not covert what other people have. This has led many to question if he is not just expressing his personal beliefs disguised as religion.
[…]
What is clear is that under Pope Francis, the finances of the Church has been declining significantly. Some argue it is due to his political statements that are not grounded in religion. There is a rather famous Italian investigative journalist, Gianluigi Nuzzi, whose new book, Universal Judgment, is the latest in a string of reveling dispatches on financial crises which he has helped to uncover within the church. In his latest book,
he warns that the Vatican will run out of funds by 2023. Certainly, the attendance is declining sharply. His previous book, Merchants in the Temple, focused on the internal corruption in the Vatican bank.
The Christian South of the U.S.A. will have to separate from the U.S.A. as it transitions to the bankrupt U.S.S.A..
I wrote a comment The subversive culture of the Filipino is an advantage though… on Quora:
After living in the Philippines for more than 20 years, I can say that your answer is correct. Well written also.
The public education system is also somewhat corrupt, so I’m not confident that education is the answer. You probably overestimate the value of education because your congenital intelligence is ostensibly higher than most of the population.
Department of Education’s blame game
Since the results of the Programme for International Student Assessment (Pisa) came out, where the Philippines fared worst among 79 countries in reading comprehension and second lowest in both mathematical and scientific literacy, the Department of Education (DepEd) has been making incoherent and nonsensical responses
The subversive culture of the Filipino is an advantage though against globalists who want a subservient, enslaved population, which is what most institutions of higher education are fostering via “yellowtardism”. Yet it appears they’ll just convert the country into drug addicts to meet their aims.
Upbringing in the family as a form of education is very important, but it’s been subverted by modern life and communication. The youth do what ever they want and are incorrigible. Parents are told by barangay captains that they can’t make them children kneel in salt nor spank them with a stick as was done before. I personally have observed the difference in attitude within a single family between the elder children who were raised with that discipline and the younger siblings in which the parents were undermined by changes in the society.
Btw, here’s some images which I think apply to low-trust society attitudes. It’s sort of fukitall pill:
And the West may be headed there to the extreme of civil war. Westerners seem to swing between extremes because they delude themselves into cooperation via the illusion of demo[n]cracy and mortgaging the future. Now the U.S.S.A. spends 7X more on old farts than the youth. At least for Filipinos so far seem to have just kept it at a steady level of “I’ll take advantage of you before you take advantage of me.” It’s pragmatic?
IOW, temper your idealism with the fact that the culture of the Philippines may know something better than we do about resiliency of the long-term cycles and trends.
Perhaps what we need most in the Philippines is economic development. Thus I applaud Duterte. I hope he will do a self-coup and keep it rolling past 2022. I was shocked coming from living in Mindanao for the past couple of decades, when on 3 separate occasions that middle-class filipinos in the Clark SM mall apologized profusely to me for myself running into them (I was blinded in my right eye by a gang in the Philippines). In Mindanao, the people always looked at me offended when they cut me off and I bumped into them because I can’t see anything on my right side anymore.
So Luzon has more ingrained corruption (because Visayan filipinos have historically been more simple-minded, and less motivated to seek wealth?) but also more economic development, which then leads to a larger middle class thus more politeness?
“former Floor Sweeper at Democratic National Committee” Joe Blow summarizes:
The “white” population (i.e. people of European ancestry) of America is projected to fall to less than 50% within a few decades. This of course generates anxiety among many white Americans. It’s not the only reason for supporting Trump, but I believe it is probably the most significant reason. Trump knows how to push the buttons of anxious white-Americans who are afraid of losing their status in society.
And exemplifies the hatred his ilk have for us:
Peterson in particular pretends to be some unbiased observer, yet when pressed for opinions almost always takes a reactionary or conservative line. Also he has posed for pictures with actual white identitarian types (there’s a picture of him with the Pepe flag and a few alt-rightists), and he has associated with the likes of Faith Goldy and Lauren Southern. He’s not exactly a white supremacist, but he acts as a useful idiot for such people.
There’s a lot of predominantly white boys who feel victimized by “PC culture” and spend too much time playing Xbox, so Jordan Peterson comes and tells them to put down the controller and get a job, or something, and they listen because he’s charismatic and shows certainty in his beliefs. Also, a lot of people are resentful of feminists, trans people/activists, and “undeserving” minorities, and Peterson attacks “special privileges” for such people. With that approach, he can maintain plausible deniability regarding bias against such people, but still attract resentful types. It’s a smart, big-tent approach to getting fans.
The biggest giveaway that he’s a reactionary demagogue is his relentless red-baiting.
[…]
Like Joseph McCarthy before him, Peterson’s real enemy is social progressivism, not the ghosts of dead Marxist oligarchies and dictatorships. He has an authoritarian, hierarchical worldview and doesn’t like criticism (he’s started suing people for defamation now). He also has a naked desire for power, and as a wimpy academic who’s probably never won a fistfight in his life, has a pathological need to be feared.

@Chandrahaas Uniyal answered on Quora:
Is the USA more respected now (with Trump) than when Obama was President?
The great American mask is off. […] But when you read more you realise that he [Hitler] was a product of anti-semitism that thrived in Europe for millennia. That there were majority of people in Germany that supported him […] That is what happened to US with Trump
[…]
When I was a kid in India, people used to talk about US with absolute admiration.
US was the shining Manhattan skyline. US was the scientific pursuit of knowledge. US was the place to go if you wanted to be safe. US was place where the less fortunate were supported. US was the pioneer in fighting for rights. US was open. US was so morally solid that they held a president accountable for adultery and then lying.
Election of Obama made this image even stronger. That US, once hell for black people, now cleansed itself by electing a black president.
[…]
Trump's election showed us the part that got deleted.
That US was now, the wall with Mexico. US was the evolution denier. US was where you could be shot for being wrong color. US was to each his own. US was breaking human rights all the time. US was closed. US was where half the population not only elected a morally bankrupt, cheating, racist, sexist, lying human being; but kept protecting and defending him.
And the Trump presidency, was just a product of that USA.
This was a shock.
I don’t support Trump succumbing to warmongers in the Middle East (of which Hellary was one of the worst in destabilizing the Middle East):
World War 3: the USA won’t exist after 2034
But reacting to your answer as a white, native Cherokee American born and raised in the South up to age 15 (before moving to California), why can’t you understand that the U.S.A. is not “your” (i.e. non-USA citizens) country and it’s our country and we don’t want to pay taxes to fund giving away everything for free to everyone who wants to come over. If the entitlement system was dismantled, I might be in support of reciprocal-only open borders. India does not reciprocate!
Joseph Blow's answer to How does American culture in the South compare to the rest of the country?
You ostensibly probably don’t understand more holistically the transformation taking place in the world:
East vs. West: China to dominate the world
What you really need to understand is that U.S.A. is going to break-up into separate regions. The South will eventually separate from the U.S.S.A., because we are culturally different than the liberal north and California. Having said that, I think a vast majority of so called “Christians” do not understand Christianity and most of the churches are corrupted.
I hope we can cordially agree to disagree about ideology. It’s okay for different people to have different ideas. That makes humanity more resilient. If we were all the same, then we would fail as a species when some environment change causes us all to make the same mistake simultaneously. Come on humans, allow people to be different and express differing views. Politics is the bane of humanity.

@Tranh Nguyen replied to @Chandrahaas Uniyal’s answer:
Amazing. The other day I saw a priest say a prayer for Trump and USA. I only listened for a few seconds, but it seemed that priest said something to the effect that Trump saved USA from the swamp, considering he’s moderm time’s Cyrus (the Mede, of the bible). Not my opinion. I’m atheist and independent.
Did you know factually that atheism is negentropic, i.e. atheists share an ideology with the retarded I.Q. spectrum:
Thus it’s an ideology of societalcide.
Ghosts of U.S. Power
At Clark Air Base in the Philippines, Ghosts of U.S. Power says:
Clark Air Base and Subic Bay were symbols of America’s global might. Then the Cold War ended. Mt. Pinatubo erupted. They closed. Now China is the unassailable power in these seas.
[…]
But these days, as new Cold Wars loom on the horizon with Russia and especially China, this historic former base is a symbol of emptiness in American defense policy.
The storied parade ground is still here, an expanse of greensward over which generals once presided as the base grew from an old Spanish cavalry post in 1898 to a symbol of global U.S. power.
[…]
President Rodrigo Duterte, best known for his brutal crackdown on drug dealers and users, has been trying to curry favor with China’s President Xi Jinping, whom he saw last week on his fifth trip to Beijing since his election three years ago.
Talk of a revival of the old relationship between the U.S. and the Philippines, still bound by a mutual defense treaty with the United States dating from 1951, has faded since Duterte stopped American warships from paying courtesy calls at Subic. Several thousand U.S. and Philippine troops do stage annual Balikatan—“shoulder to shoulder”—exercises but stay clear of the Chinese, a force the Americans are in no position to challenge without their historic bases.
Reminders of a bygone era are visible around the Clark Freeport in the form of old buildings that once served the Americans. Some are hollow shells, others rebuilt after a wave of looting in which Filipinos, with the connivance of high-ranking military officers, stripped the base of just about anything that might be sold on the open market, including copper wiring, pipes, and plumbing, as well as weapons and expensive electronic gadgetry. That era of massive thievery, an epidemic that officials prefer not to discuss, appears forgotten while planners welcome new investment
[…]
“We say there’s not just life after the bases,” says Noel Tulabut, communications manager of the Clark Development Corporation, “There’s new life, period.” That includes factories and shops on the base, two 18-hole and two 9-hole golf courses and four casinos.
[…]
U.S. military people who once lit up “the red light district,” as it’s widely known, may no longer be around, but greying retirees, most of them living with Filipinas, hang out in the bars and clubs. Some of them congregate at Margarita Station, a legendary restaurant and pool hall run by a retired U.S. air force officer near what was once the main gate to the former base.
Old-timers at Margarita Station complain authorities are imposing new rules for the gaudy clubs, but visitors from South Korea and other Asian countries, plus Europe, Australia and the U.S., keep the place humming. The district flourishes decades after American GIs crowded the strip, rivalled only by the wild nightclubs of Olongapo by Subic Bay, a 90-minute drive to the west.
[…]
These days the goal is “to make Clark the main airport for the Philippines,” says Augusto Sanchez at the Clark International Airport Corporation. By the time Duterte steps down when his six-year term ends in 2022, says Sanchez, “a whole new infrastructure will be in place, all part of the Clark Freeport managed by the Clark Development Corporation.”
Now the most numerous visitors to Clark are Koreans, who fill the flights from South Korea in pursuit of all Clark and Angeles City have to offer. The three G’s of golf, gambling and girls lure so many visitors that the airport is adding another terminal and two more strips.
After all that’s done, maybe by next year, Clark should be poised to surpass Manila’s Ninoy Aquino International Airport as the Philippines’ main gateway. Befitting its rising stature, it’s even getting a new name, Lipad, which means “fly” in Tagalog and also is the acronym for Luzon International Premier Airport Development—Luzon being the name of the Philippines’ main island.
[…]
Such remarks appear all the more absurd considering that President Duterte has assiduously cozied up to China. He’s repeatedly implied that China may be a more reliable friend than the U.S. as a result of the withdrawal of U.S. forces in 1991 and 1992 from Clark and Subic
Duterte, sensitive to criticism that he’s been overly friendly to Beijing, believes the latter-day Americans simply won’t do much, if anything, to defend the Philippines in a showdown. In a commentary dripping with sarcasm he told a local TV audience, “I would like America to gather all their Seventh Fleet in front of China.” Were that to happen, he said, “I will join them.”
[…]
In fact, the weakness of the Philippine armed forces is manifest. Its 170,000 troops have to defend the country’s 8,000 or so islands against not only external threats but also twin Muslim and communist revolts.
Among Duterte’s foes is the country’s vice president, Leni Robredo, a lawyer whose husband, a former cabinet minister, died in a plane crash seven years ago. The winner in a separate vote for vice president in the 2016 elections, Robredo accuses Duterte of “selling out” to China.
“The president has made a lot of statements which give a sense we are acquiescing to what China wants,” she said in an interview with Bloomberg. “We might wake up one day, and many of our territories are no longer ours.”
At Clark, such dire verbiage causes little concern. The civilian airport here passed a milestone of two million passengers in the first half of this year, and Texas Instruments and Samsung Electronics spin out semiconductors and other electronic products inside the zone. Three hours from Manila by a congested expressway and teeming city streets, the airport will in a few years be connected by a railroad, bringing it within an hour of the swarming capital.

2% Annual Property Tax in Philippines but accessed value is only 20% of the land value and 40% of the buildings, plus there’s a 20% discount for prepayment. So actually a very low ~0.5% annual property tax.

Click here (←please click it and read the details) to read all of what I wrote recently about Clark/Angeles. First a concise excerpt I want to emphasize:
But it’s not nothing like Mexico, c.f. also! […] Latin Americans are emboldened to mug you.
Filipinos would much prefer to steal when you’re not looking. Asians are much, much less confrontational.But if you are too far off the beaten path down in Mindanao or some mountainous area in Luzon, it’s possible to be kidnapped where no one else is around to witness the incident. Also it’s possible to get the shit beaten out of you (as happened to me) right in front of everyone, if it’s not clear if you were being abusive and arrogant to Filipinos. Never insult the pride of an Asian, especially not in front of others (and not without very polite, reassuring, careful considered wording even if you rebuke in private as), otherwise you’ll vacate their “saving face” cultural restraint.Filipinos are family-first, local tribe/clan second, and otherwise don’t trust other Filipinos.
Filipinos trust and respect foreigners very much, sometimes too much[…] But that doesn’t mean you can trust all of them […]
And:
It’s important to emphasize why it’s impossible to have peace with Muslims. And thus why Mindanao (with its 24% percentage of Muslims versus nearly 0% outside of Mindanao) isn’t the optimal choice for most Christians.
The Philippine government has attempted a peace process with the Muslims, but the the Muslims break away into factions because they’re jealous of their own leaders. IOW, Muslims prefer fighting and stealing to cooperation and hard work. Instead of accepting that they would be better offer accepting peace and some leaders, then working hard to better their position within such, they would prefer to fracture between themselves into warring jealous factions. For example, Mohammad’s two sons are the warring factions (Shi'ite and Sunni) of the Islamic faith. Muslims will never accept that some land title holder is the rightful owner. They will find a way to force you to give up your land. In fact, this is a common theme in the Philippines in general or at least in Mindanao. I remember the story
[…]
Bottom line is if I choose to stay in the Philippines, I will reside within a large (multi-hectares) exclusive compound (hopefully that I manage) with adequate firepower to prevent any rogue elements from attempting to mess with us inside the compound. If we can’t insure the security of foreigners, then only the most pathetic and desperate foreigners will want to come over.
But keep in mind that the West is also going to become much less secure as it collapses into economic devastation. Whereas, the Philippines can only get better as the middle-class is expanding and they demand their government get tough on crime and corruption. So if anything it’s a matter of diametrically opposed trajectories for future peace and order for Asia versus the West, because of the diametrically opposed future prospect for economic development versus economic devastation.
Here’s another excerpt:
A stroll through SM Clark mall reveals that very likely not even ~5% of the female population of Angeles are whores. The “little America” (transitioning now to little Korea) enclave is well stocked with whores. Well depends on how you define a whore. By a strict definition, nearly every female on earth is a whore in these modern times wherein virtually no one marries a virgin. Jesus invested his ministry effort with the whores.
Philippines is a shithole in terms of infrastructure and low-trust society compared the glory days or yore in the West. But there’s some
[unique] benefit here [in Clark/Angeles City] because of the resources Schelling point legacy of the American military’s former presence:
Running a software company from Angeles City because of the available infrastructure (i.e. including 100 Mbps fiber Internet), wouldn’t stop me from roaming around the Philippines on vacation.

In Luzon they’re building a network of gated, toll highways. Since they’re not free, the congestion is reduced and there’s no pedestrians, bicycles, and farm animals cross and cluttering the road:
Whereas, the necessary prioritization in Mindanao is on economic development for all to try to alleviate the political problems due to poverty and separatism. Compare visually to my comment post about the much more mountainous Mindanao with roads that are free for everyone and everything to loiter on:
Poro Point Freeport Zone
The Point Residences by Thunderbird Resorts apparently ~US$200/m².
Lease Cost
Inside former Clark military base in what is now the Clark Freeport and Special Economic Zone, the real estate can’t be purchased and is available only for long-term (up to 100 year) lease.
Typical lease prices for example:
48-year-Lease on Choice Properties in Clark Freeport Zone
Leases on a small number of properties of areas from 3000 m² to 25000 m² are now available for acquisition in prime locations around Clark Freeport Zone. Prices for the leasehold rights vary depending on the size of the properties. These properties carry a lease for 48 years, renewable for 25 years subject to mutual consent with CDC. One-time payment for the takeover of the lease shall be required.
- Small Lots below 5000 m²: US$150/m²
- Medium-sized lots of up to 15000 m²: US$130/m²
- Large lots of at least 15000 m²: US$110/m²
- Method of Acquisition: Acquire the shares of a company that holds the lease with CDC to this property
- Revenue Sharing (payment to CDC): 3% of gross profits or 7% of gross revenues whichever is higher.
Industrial Warehouse For Lease in Freeport Zone Clark Pampanga offered for US$5.45/year/m², minimum 3 years.
In 2015, the value of undeveloped land without road access in New Clark City was estimated to be worth ~US$2/m² (presumably for 25+ year lease) and ~$20/m² with roads.
An example 228 m² (i.e. 2454.17 ft²) 3 Bedroom House In Clark on a 645 m² lot for ~US$285,000 indicates the lease portion of that cost is probably ~US$150 – 250/m²:
Outside Clark Freeport and Special Economic Zone
Real estate outside of Clark is less than 10% of the price and can be purchased presumably with a land title.
Ostensibly not more than 1 km outside the Clark heading more than 3 km away from SM Clark mall and the Fields Avenue Walking Street bars on the other side of Friendship Highway (that leads to the Friendship Gate entrance to Clark), and more than 2 km from La Grande condohotel as the crow flies, 43 ha (430,000 m²) is offered for ~US$14/m²:
Here’s the views from the rooftop of the La Grande Condohotel which is outside of and just south of the Friendship Gate entrance to Clark Freeport and Special Economic Zone:
Ostensibly ~15 kms from Friendship Gate going the other direction towards 1,026 m (3,366 ft) Mt. Arayat (thus ~12 km from other end of Fields Ave Walking Street…actually ~12km via road or ~9km as the bird flies to SM Clark and MaqQuee mall is ~3km closer), 6 ha (60,000 m²) is offered for negotiable ~US$7/m² (US$400k total):
Note fiberoptic cable costs ~US$12,000/km.
Here’s a Freshwater Fishing in a Scenic View in Magalang near Mt. Arayat but ~7 km north of the aforemention property:
Here’s a 40 – 86 m² condo complex inside Clark for ~US$1500/m² (US$61 – 130k total):
Also check out Kandi Reality’s condos which are selling for as low as ~US$500 – 1200/m² (US$74 – 120+k total).
And a large 215 m², 3 bedroom, 3 bathroom condo inside Clark for ~US$1200/m² (US$260k total):
For a tourism/vacation getaway up north about 7 hours drive from Angeles City/Clark (on mostly new gated, toll roads) where it’s a couple of degrees cooler, and much more windswept, among the islands in Illocos region, there’s for example the 36.3 hectares Badoc Island ~1km from Badoc which is 1 hour drive south of Laoag City, Ilocos Norte listed for sale for ~US$9/m² (US$3.1m total):
Across the channel from Badoc Island is a 3000 m² (¾ acre) beach front property which could also perhaps serve as a private boat launch for ~US$21/m² (US$64k total):
With subdivision roads and utilities, the smaller ~200 – 300 m² lots sell for up to ~US$200/m² (up to US$60k total):
Even more windswept up, even cooler, at the northern tip of Luzon there’s 24 hectares with beach and highway frontage but I didn’t inquire the price.
Disclaimer: I have not done any due diligence on issues with these offered properties such as whether they have a clean title, if there any issues with squatter claims, any issues with flooding, etc..
