Nowadays, after almost 80 years of peace in europe have caused havoc on our sense for realism and our ability to recognise harsh realities, we have lost the ability to defend ourselves, our identities, our self-definition, our rights and freedoms. Our cultural degeneration, our decadence, reveals itself not so much in our lacking fighting skill, but in our lack of willingness to defend ourselves, in our display of not wanting to defend ourselves, and our lacking ability to even recognise the need of defence. we crucify ourselves over concerns about laws and bureaucratic procedures, and we care so very much for foreign people's sentiments who care little about what their behavior do to our sentiments. And, like you, we accept to actively prevent any form of self-definition, since that would mean not only to say what we are, but also would mean the need to also say what we are not, and do not want to be. We care so much about our plethora of concerns and laws and we fear so much to offend others and not being of sufficient obedience to their demands for us to adapt to them - and by doing so, we sentence ourselves to paralysis, and passivity while the threats are mounting.
