With a culture as stubborn and storied as the French culture, the impending change seems to be infiltrating more slowly in Paris. There are still a million cafes, and bakeries, and cheese shops, and French people chatting at Brasseries, and boats taking tourists up and down the Seine River.
But there’s a layer of dust over the city.
Graffiti is everywhere, on ancient walls and trains and shop doors. There is more garbage on the streets, carelessly tossed water bottles and wrappers—thrown by people who don’t care about beauty, and have no respect for someone else’s land.
Immigrant children gather in parks, oblivious to the people around them, speaking in their native tongues, not in school, ignored by the Parisians passing them by.
Streets once solely French are being taking over by immigrants, and new restaurants have the smell of curry mingling with baking baguettes.
I sat next to a Chinese student at a Vivaldi concert in an old church. I was amazed by the number of Chinese in the city taking in Monet, crème brûlée, and music. They seem to love Western culture. They're in Paris to eat it up. They want the clothes, the food, the art. President Chi was visiting while I was there. Long tables of his contingency sat in historic cafes eating elevated French food—cafes where Hemingway once sat and wrote. They secretly covet the culture they were taught to dispossess.
I found it all bizarre.
The monsters ruling the earth are trying to do away with Western civilization—all of our artistic accomplishments, the architecture, the literature, the food, the beauty. Maybe people like the Chinese are trying to scarf it down before it disappears.
Student protesters were encircled three deep by the French police, and while these naive students have no idea what they are protesting for, I hated to see their right to protest stifled in such a way.
There are no customs agents at the airports. A machine takes your picture and scans your passport. Right out of the book 1984.
The last days of ancient sunlight. Those words kept going through my mind in Paris. Immigrants drive taxis, secure famous art, run the shops. Things are changing—begrudgingly so.
Left, still, was the quintessential French waiter. No one will ever take his place, until all the restaurants serve food that tastes like curry.
Beautifully written observations-thank you for taking the time.
Welcome to the UNITED STATES OF IMMIGRANTS your political system has sold your country out. There is no FUCKING WAY “YOU” can say to “ME” that our nation America is not ran by an outside cartel, cabal one world government.
Yes great writing. Reminds me of something I might read in TakiMag a great conservative publication worth checking out https://www.takimag.com/
WOW I hear you and feel your sadness for what seems like a civilization lost. Please hang in till Christmas. The world REALLY is about to change BIG TIME and for the better. And the Chinese that revered you culture so much? They respect their own so therefore they respect other cultures.I lived in China 2007,2008 and not in the westernized cities. Ironically I think it will be China Russia and a slew of other countries that will save the so called West.
🙏
This can be generalized all of Cabal plans. They try to weaponise one group of people against the rest, but each time the weaponised people wake up and do the exact opposite (sometimes it takes longer for them to wake up).
This is what gives me hope that Humanity was destined to pass this test and prove its worthiness to live freely.
I have a Christian outlook, humanity was never going to pass this test, so God gave us Jesus a rope to cling onto to be delivered from what is going too befall us all.
The Bible says unless God cut the endtimes short noone will survive. The satanists would of won and stole our earth and got rid of us "useless eaters"
I have wondered about this. Gotta say, there was a inherent flaw in the experiment. I think God made up for this by sending Jesus, but honestly, I would love to see what would have happened in a World where Jesus needn't have been sent, but also where Devil was not allowed to interfere as well. Just humans, all on their own.
That's an interesting thought that's never crossed my mind, thank you for that. I honestly don't know how it would end up. We have know way of judging it, before the flood God said that every thought of their heart was constantly evil but they had contact with fallen angels that taught them war and sorcery.
Also that was after the fall of Adam and Eve and then cain the serpent murdering Abel. Abel was a good one, cain the bad one and Seth the in-between one. The good one was killed instantly by the serpent seed.
That's going to make me think for days but I think right now there's not enough to go by.
We are experiencing a color revolution from the inside. 🥺
I just thought is it mere “coincidence” the summer Olympics are being held there…
But why are we assuming that all trash is due to the immigration?
When in reality... this could be a sign that the Cabal has changed the "YOUTH" of a nation.
That new youth is not respecting the same things their parents do.
The Cabal wants us to blame everything on immigrants. When in reality... we all need to change.
I've been going to Paris every year for work seminars for the last 35 years. It has always had trash everywhere and been dirty. I've always seen immigrants on the streets. There has always been graffiti all over the place.
I was there two months ago, nothing has changed.
How often do you go there?
Paris is a beautiful city and the Parisians love their city. I have noticed—and smelled—a remarkable change.
Yes... but I am sure that it's not just immigrants trashing the place. There are tons of natives who act similar to the immigrants is certain ways.
Thanks for taking the time to write this.
In general things are better in their natural state, with differences among tribes and cultures celebrated rather than erased.
Individual identity and liberty >> Strong male-based, secure family units >> Citizen control of local community, school boards >> State >> National culture. In that order.
Gray homogeneity (and homo everything else too), bland sameness, equal grimness for all, no freedom to breathe or eat or do as you wish, is what the left insists on. Total top-down control. Because no one can stand their policies. They have to be forced down the public's throat at gunpoint.
We do not comply.
When you are a people without your own history you are a people more easily subjugated.
On a side note about the tag attached to the post, please ditch the misplaced apostrophe in cultures.
I watched a show hosted by Mohammed Faridi where he interviews exmuslims who have converted to Christianity. One guest was a fellow native Iranian and they spoke at length about their loss of their Persian history and culture. An ancient culture who came to the rescue of Israel and were conquered by the darkness of Islam in the 1970's. Interesting and quite inspiring.
I was in Paris last summer, it was filthy. Full of trash, an entire lgbt themed section of the city, graffiti everywhere. The Eiffel Tower area was disgusting.

I saw the writing on the wall in 2007 and left.
That was good. In the history books that discuss the Great Awakening, they should quote your post.
Peace be with you.
We thought about a Viking river cruise from Paris to Switzerland. I read somewhere else that Paris is a shithole now. This confirms my fear. I wouldn’t be going there to experience any culture except French.
How was the concert, distractions aside?
I’d really like to see L'estro armonico performed live sometime. Seems tough to find in the states.
How did Vivaldi look? I mean he's pushing 350 years old now. Did Keith Richards open for him? kek
Richards used to babysit Vivaldi as a child I heard.
Vivaldi ........ to ......... um. ...mumble-rap...... in yeah,.....about 350 years........ now that’s progress!!!!!!
Almost as if it was a plan.
I call it, Beethoven to bullshit in 100 years.
It’s impossible unless it’s a plan. Because music and musicians expand and grow musically. This isn’t it.
Roger that - culture is being destroyed. Music, architecture, history etc.
All the ugly buildings as Trump said. Government buildings need to be made in classical architecture.
Bring back art deco.
I remember visiting France 13 years ago. Absolutely stunning and beautiful. Food was incredible. Art and architecture unparalleled. Full of French people speaking French! Except...there was a small undercurrent of immigrants in Paris, even back then. They were mostly harmless, selling cheap trinkets to tourists, but I remember wondering why there were so many non-Frenchies in France.
The only thing I'd want to see in France again is the Notre Dame Cathedral, especially once it is fully restored after that horrific fire 5 years ago, but seeing what France has become since then with the unstopping immigration is just too sad to bear witness. I would only go to see the Cathedral again if the migrants are sent back from whence they came. How likely is that to happen with Macron in charge?
It's what they do. Fuck up their world, then whine about it, then move on to a better place and proceed to fuck that up, too.
This post is very timely for me as I am now, also in Paris for a few days.
I noticed much of this a few years back and was wondering what it would be like during this visit. The way you describe the city is accurate, but I also noticed that the government may be trying to "clean it up" a bit as to show it in a more positive light for the upcoming Summer Olympics?
Last evening (some family members wanted to see the Eiffel Tower all lit up), the park around the Eiffel Tower is closed and fenced off and I'm wondering if this is to clean up the graffiti and trash? Hard to know, but the changes that Paris has undergone since the first time I visited about 35 years ago are hard to miss and I long for the vibrant French culture present during those years.
Someone is a writer. I was taken there.
