Why Are They Hurting Thenselves?

Why are they hurting themselves?  They can so easily figure out that they are hurting themselves, but they still hurt themselves, even as they claim that they are helping themselves.  Why?

Because what is happening is decay.  All of the strange autoharmful things that "the West" is doing now are parts of decay.  They are hurting themselves as part of a process of cycling human societies, whereby the destruction of an older society leaves behind components that can then become part of a newer society.  The newer society could not exist if many members of the older society did not behave this way.  

This is not a pleasant thing through which to live.  It seems insane, and it seems like you can very rationally explain to people why what they are doing is hurting themselves.  However, you can do this all you like and those people will still behave in ways that hurt themselves while insisting that the things they are doing are very good.  Women and homos will insist that more Muslim immigrants are allowed into their society even though it is quite obvious that they will be raped or thrown to their deaths from buildings.  

(They can tell themselves that if they work very hard and give the people free houses, food, medical care, and education, that won't happen.  It will; they are completely wrong.  However, many others are completely wrong that if more people just loved a first-century rabbi named Jesus they will be saved, or that you can educate people away from decay.)

Everything decays.  If you leave food out for a week, it spoils.  If you leave it out for a year, it really decays.  100 years it’s gone (maybe there’s a pile of dirt, but the sandwich or whatever it was is gone).  

So too do collections of human cells (human bodies) decay, and just like that, collections of humans decay.  

Think of a pretty White woman in western Europe.  She gets raped by a migrant, works for years paying taxes to pay for migrants to live in nice apartments across the street from her less-nice apartment, gets raped again by a different migrant, works for a few more years paying taxes to fix the migrants' apartments and make sure the migrants get plenty of food to eat, and so on.  To make sure people know they shouldn't be racist, she goes down to the docks on a special day and holds up a sign reading "refugees welcome."  Why?  It seems insane.  She's hurting herself, and so are several of the men who would've married her if life had gone that way while they work hard to pay to feed and house the people with a faraway genetic heritage who regularly rape that woman and brutalize her and friends or just brutalize the guys.  

That kind of stuff happens all the time, and it seems like stupidity or ignorance (or both) to so many amazed observers.  However, it is not, and that is why arguments to that effect do not work.  It is decay.  Like the rain falling, it will keep happening.  

(This brushes up against a difficult personal issue, namely that the way people think is in accordance with their environment, not with the independence with which they flatter themselves they think.  Since you are probably a person, that is also how you think.)  

There is, again, this weird conflict between people trying to make society decay and people trying to make that not happen.  Sadly for them right now, decay will happen.
