The lecture argues that Western societies are in decline, characterized by "death by gerontocracy," where an aging, wealthy elite prioritizes their own interests, leading to societal problems like mass immigration, economic hardship for the young, and erosion of freedoms.
So good afternoon class. Today we do
death by gerontocracy. Gerontocracy just
means rule by old people. Last class we
discussed the decline of western society
and civilization and why it's happening.
We discussed the theories. Today we will
look at what the reality on the ground
is. What the actual trends are. What are
the current examples of decline in the
western world. All right. So let me
start with this young man. Um his name
is Axel Ruda Kubana and he was 17 years
old when last year um he took a knife
and he walks into a dance studio in Southport
Southport
uh Britain and then he proceeds to stab
the little girls inside the dance studio
and they are five, six, seven. He kills
three of them. He is quickly arrested by
the police. And as you can see, he is a
very disturbed young man. He clearly has
a mental illness. Otherwise, why would
he go kill children?
Um, and he was sentenced to 52 years
behind bars. So, he's going to spend the
rest of his life in prison. So, justice
was done.
What happens next is that all throughout
Britain there are riots and protests.
What happened was that rumors start to
spread online about the attack. They
claim that the young man was a asylum
seeker, an immigrant
and because there are too many
immigrants coming to England,
everyone's safety is at stake. So, as
you can see, these protests were
extremely heated. They were extremists.
Um, they were anti-immigrant and
ultimately it led to violence between
And this is happening all throughout
Britain. Last summer, the country of
England burned basically,
literally burned. Okay, so these
protesters were setting cars on fire and
they were targeting immigrants in
Britain. Remember that this 17-year-old
boy, he's actually not an immigrant. He
was born in Wales to parents who are
from Rwanda. Okay. So, he is a um
British citizen.
As you can see,
the men who participated in the protest
um they're not sad about what they're
doing. They feel virtuous. They feel
righteous. They feel proud for
protecting their people against immigrants.
immigrants.
So the question for us today is why is
this happening? Why are the all these
civil conflicts caused by immigration
throughout the western world? So this is
happening in Britain. But as you know
immigration United States led to the
victory of Donald Trump in last year's
elections in the United States.
A lot of the conflict comes from the
fact that immigration is happening too
fast in the western world. So after co
um you see this large spike in
immigrants. The other issue is that most
of these immigrants are coming from
um countries in the Middle East, in
Africa, in East Asia. So it's clear that
these people are different from you.
Okay. So before there might have been a
lot of EU, European immigrants, but now
it's just mainly countries outside of
Europe. So the British people feel as
though they're being invaded by foreigners.
The changes, demographic changes to
British society are stark. So the uh I'm
not sure if you can see this clearly.
Okay. But like the dark brown are places
where in the past
5 10 years the immigrant population has
tripled has tripled three times. Okay.
And as you can see there are quite a few
pockets where immigr immigration is sort
of overwhelming the local population. So
if you go to Britain, there are some
places where you feel this is like
Morocco or this or this is like Rhonda
or maybe even uh Egypt. Okay. So the
British people feel they're under siege
and this happening throughout the
western world. So this is Australia.
Okay. So Australia after co huge spike
and most of them are coming from
non-European countries. So the greatest
spike is in India but then you also have
China and the Philippines as well. These
are the three major sources of
immigrants to Australia. Okay.
The same is happening in France where
you're seeing a huge spike in
immigration and again most of the
immigrants are coming from African or
Middle Eastern countries and so the
French feel as though their culture is
being diluted. It's being attacked and invaded.
invaded.
This happening all throughout Western
Europe. The UK, France, Italy and
Germany are seeing a huge spike in
immigrants and refugees and so their
What these what's also happening is a
huge spike in inflation. Okay, so this
is something called the CPI, the
consumer price index, which is just
measuring the price of basic goods
like food and shelter. Okay? And as you
can see, there's a huge spike in prices.
So, as these immigrants are coming into
your country, you also feel as though
your quality of life is getting worse
and worse. It's getting harder for you
to afford basic goods like rent and
food. it's getting harder for you to um
The major increase is in housing prices.
Okay, so Canada these past 5 years has
seen a huge influx of immigrants and
this has caused housing prices to
skyrocket. The United States, which has
a much larger economy than Canada, the
housing prices are pretty stable. You
can still afford to buy a house if
you're a young person in United States,
not in Canada. Okay, you see this huge
spike in Canada. The house housing
prices are now unaffordable.
This is a chart that shows you economic
growth as compared to housing prices.
So, as you can see, United States um
housing prices there's a correlation
between income and housing prices. Okay,
this is pretty reasonable. In Canada, it
is not reasonable. Okay, so GDP is GDP,
housing prices is growing like this, but
housing prices is just skyrocketing
and that's why Canadians feel as though
the Canadian dream of one day having
So, one strange thing is that as Canada
lets in more immigrants,
um, and as property houses go up, you
would think that they would build more
and more houses, but as you can see,
housing supply, okay, housing supply,
it's pretty flat, even though
immigration is going up. Does anyone
know why this would be the case? Why is
it that you have a policy of letting in
more immigrants, but you don't have a
policy of building more housing for
them? That's kind of strange, right?
Does anyone can anyone guess why that
would be the case? Yeah.
Yeah.
>> Sorry. Can you can you speak in the
microphone? Thank you.
>> Okay. Um maybe they
want to make sure that the housing's not
affordable maybe because they want to
make more money cuz now there's like
more competition for housing.
Definitely. As you said the prices of
housing was like going like skyrocketing
and people would make more money like
people who provide the housings would
naturally real estate's people make more
money I guess.
>> Yeah that's exact exactly correct. Okay.
So policy is not being controlled by
what's best for the nation and the
people. It's controlled by vested
interests that will make money off the
process. Right. So as you say real
estate developers can make money off
this process. But the people who who
benefit the most actually property
owners right. So you if you have a if
you already have a house
if the supply is constant but the demand
goes up then you know by from economic
class that the value of a house
increases artificially. So it's making
homeowners very happy.
Okay. And that's why you have this
Um the other issue that's really
problematic in the western world is that
as immigrate as the number of immigrants
goes up,
native people, the native population,
they're not having children. Okay, so
this is this is Canada where the birth
rate, okay, the blue is the birth rate,
okay, it's steadily going down whereas
immigrants are going up. So it's the
immigrants who provide most of the new
people in Canada. In fact, right now,
25% a quarter of all Canadians are first
generation immigrants. Uh, sorry, first
generation Canadians, meaning that that
they they're immigrants to the country.
And if you just look at this trend, in
40 years time, 50 years time, there'll
be very few white Canadians in Canada.
And this is causing a lot of lot of
conflict and tension in the country.
So you have these huge issues. Um
housing is unaffordable, inflation is
going up,
ethnic tensions are increasing, but the
Canadian government still insists on
increasing the number of immigrants in
the country. Okay? There's no there's no
policy roll back where like you know
what, let's have a moratorum. Um,
clearly our policy is too rapid and we
need to slow things down. In fact, as
you can see, they're they're actually
going to ramp up the process. The goal
for Canada right now, Canop population
is about 35 to 40 million people. They
want 100 million people 100 million
people in Canada by the year 2100. And
guess what? The majority of these people
are going to come from India and
probably China. Okay?
Okay?
And as we discussed the percentage of immigrants
immigrants
as part of the total population is just
rapidly increasing. So in Australia it's
almost a third now. In Canada it's a
quarter. In Germany it's a fifth. And
these percentage will go up and up and
up leading to more and greater ethnic
tension and immigrant protests within
As you can see, uh, the number of
immigrants coming from India far
surpasses that of other countries. Okay?
And these are just legal immigrants.
We're not counting in students. So,
there are millions and millions of
Indian students right now in Canada on
student visas and they're looking for a
path to permanent residency, to
citizenship. And that's what leads to
situations like this. Okay? these viral
videos online where you have thousands
and thousands of Indian students lining
up for hours and hours because they're
applying for a minimum wage job at a
restaurant or at a store. Life for these
Indian students is just terrible. A lot
of them live eight to a room. Okay, this
one room that was meant for one person.
There are now eight students living in
that room.
At the same time, what's really
interesting is that the Indians are now
a extremely powerful political force in
Canada. This was the former prime
minister Justin Trudeau meeting with
representatives of the Indian community
because he depends on them for his votes.
In last year's federal election, 22 Indian
Indian uh
uh
people of Indian descent were elected to
parliament. Okay. So in parliament
there's 343 seats. 22 of them now are Indian.
Indian.
How many Chinese? How how many MPs of
Chinese origin? There are less than 10.
So even though the Chinese have been
there longer and even though they're
actually the more numerous Chinese than
Indians, the Indians are extremely
powerful political force. Now a lot of
it is because Indians um come from
democracy. So they're very good at
debate. They're very good at organizing.
They're very good at collective action.
And that's what let leads them to excel
in the Canadian political system. At the
same time, we can imagine that if
current trends continue, if the
immigrant population from India increases
increases
um and if the Indians continue to amass
more more political power, there could
be a situation where the Indians take
over the Canadian government in like 20
or 40 years time. So there's a real risk
that in Canada that their native
population gets replaced by the Indians.
And this is happening elsewhere as well.
>> Uh like the all the imi Indian
immigrants that you have mentioned like
it's took a part of the Canadian
population. How about the like uh having
the risk of aliens took over Canadian
but how about the people that is local
in Canadian like how are they doing
right now because we are all focusing on immigrants
immigrants
>> right okay that's a great question okay
so immigrants are suffering but actually
the local population is suffering even
more because as we discussed the last
class the economy is declining and it's
pretty rapid rapid decline. So, it's
harder for young people to find jobs,
especially with immigrants coming into
the country, right? Um prices are very
expensive nowadays. So, it's very hard
for young people to live and work in big
cities. So, as these immigrants are
coming into the country, they're putting
tremendous pressure on the local
population. That's why there's so much
ethnic tension uh throughout the Western
world right now. Okay. So this leads us
to a paradox.
If immigrants are making life worse for
everyone, especially young people, who's
the future of these nations, why is this
happening? Okay, so I want you guys to
keep this in the back of your mind. You
probably know the answer already because
you you you know how property prices
work, right? Okay, so uh let's move on
to another topic. So Canada like 10
years ago introduced a new policy called
maid called medical assistance in dying euthanasia
euthanasia
and the idea here is that
if you feel life is meaningless if
you're depressed um if you feel that you
cannot cure your disease the government
will help you kill yourself. The
government will let you die. Now the big
question then is yeah but 25 years ago
this was illegal in the world right you
suicide was you was illegal if you
helped someone kill himself you'll be
put in prison this would be basically murder.
murder.
So what's the difference between suicide
and the government helping you kill
yourself? Well there really isn't. Okay
but the government says there is a
difference. Okay. So this a brochure
from the government from the Can
government explaining you why suicide is
bad. Okay. Suicide is bad but suicide by
government is good. Okay. And it's
really stupid. It's disgusting. Stupid.
It's disgustingly stupid. Okay. What
they say is that if you if you do
suicide well you do it alone and you
shock your friends and family. But
if you do maid, then everyone knows
you're killing yourself and so they
won't be so sad when you die,
right? If you kill yourself,
you might screw it up, but if the
government does it for you, you won't
screw it up because it's it's being uh
facilitated by professionals who know
what they're doing.
All right? If you think this is stupid,
there's more stupidity to come. Right?
And what this tells us is we discussed
this last class is one major sign of
decline in society is the over
bureaucratization of society with the
government interferes in everything. Okay.
Um this is the number actually number of deaths
deaths
from euthanasia in Canada. As you can
see in 2016, it started at about a
thousand. By 2021, it's at 10,000. Okay?
So, the numbers are going up really rapidly.
rapidly.
Why? Well, because if you want to kill
yourself, they won't stop you. This is
the number of days required
to be approved for suicide. As you can
see in the Netherlands, sorry, this is
Oregon, actually. This is Oregon, United
States. Okay. The number of days have
been going down, but it's still like at
most a month. Okay. In Canada, they'll
do it in like 10 days for you.
They won't even think about it. They're
like, "You want to kill yourself? Do it,
man. Good for you. Good choice."
Doctors have been trained
to not do any harm, right?
Well, and death ought to be the last
resort. But in Canada, death is now the
first resort. If you go to a doctor and
say, "I want to die." The doctor's like,
"Sure, let's do it, man." That's pretty disgusting.
disgusting.
All right. Why are people people
killing? So, like, if you see um the
number of approval rates have been going
way up. It seems that it seems as though
they have a quarter of the field. This
is 2019.
Um only 7 75% were approved. Now, it's
81%. It's almost like they have a quota.
They're trying to kill as many people as
Um, as you can see, this number is the
percentage of people who die because of
euthanasia. Uh, this is the Netherlands,
which for the longest time had a very
open policy when it comes to euthanasia.
And yeah, it's going up, but this huge
spike is Canada. Okay. It seems as
though Canada can is in a rush to kill
as many people as possible. So who's dying?
dying?
>> Yeah. Do you have do you have a question?
question?
>> So the suicide of Canada is not insunia.
Is that also a type of in insunasia?
>> No. No. No. Okay. All right. So suicide
is when you kill yourself. Euphanasia is
when a doctor helps you kill yourself.
Euphania means good death.
It means like you will die painlessly. Okay.
>> No, no, no. Okay. Euphania is suicide by government.
