Civilization, he understands. Proper lapels, not so much. Good video. Carry on.

Prov. 13:22 had it best: "A good man leaves an inheritance to his children’s children, but the sinner’s wealth is laid up for the righteous."

Thank you for making these. Please don't edit too much, because there are so many beautiful contrasts - intended or not - that may get lost.

If one owns land from one generation to the next, all one wants to do during one’s term on earth is to further enhance it. The old saying goes that civilisation is when old men plant trees under whose shade they will never enjoy

In Maharashtra, the Kumbh Mela will take place in Nashik. To provide accommodation for the sadhus and mahants coming for the event, a “Sadhugram” is planned. But for this, nearly 1,700 trees will be cut, many of them 40 to 50 years old. The Kumbh Mela will last only for a month. Is it really necessary to cut such old and valuable trees for something so temporary? Today, very few people plant trees and take care of them, so why remove the ones we already have? After all, the sadhus can sit in the shade of these very trees. This is something we should seriously think CMO Maharashtra

Our obligation to America’s future is far greater than a single election cycle. We need to be thinking in terms of centuries. America’s next 250 years can be greater than her first, if we have the courage to plant trees whose shade we will never sit in. National Conservatism

400 acres of Hyderabad’s wild forest—home to 734 plant species, 220 bird species, deer, pythons & centuries-old trees—is vanishing under Congress rule in Telangana! A thriving ecosystem, a natural heritage, now facing ruthless destruction. Who will speak for the voiceless?

The stones may be old, but they are chiseled afresh. The civilisation may be ancient, but it is born again. The people may be young, but they never forget. Happy Diwali! जय श्री राम🚩

Zionists should fear what this man is saying. The fact that in the 18-29 age bracket, more Jews identify as Non-Zionist than Zionist means that when the corrupt old white men who enable Zionism die off, so too will Israel.
