I wrote the following essay on my old blog, specifically about the “sudden” explosion of Islamic migrants in many Western countries:
E The Islamic Lotus
From that above link – and note the year, 2018! – I pulled this screen grab of an analogy I’d read – and cited from memory – in a scifi book about why Neanderthals (hidden among us) didn’t see rising Homo Sapiens as a dire threat until they were overwhelmed “suddenly” by us (no, I don’t recall the name of the book but it was an entertaining read):
And, indeed, we’re suddenly noticing.
If you are not shaken to your core by this, something is wrong with you (barenakedislam.com)
Remember this video?
Do keep in mind this was made several years ago. It’s worse, and visibly so, now… but it’s only suddenly that we’re really seeing it. Here is another, discussing Canada, more recent:
“By 2060, Muslims will be the biggest religious group the world over. […] Are you going to oppose sharia even then? We have families. We are making babies. You’re not. […]One day we can have a Muslim majority nation here in Canada. Right in your face”
And I don’t have it bookmarked on this computer, but I remember some years ago seeing a video of an Imam in Europe preaching to a crowd of Muslims that the future belongs to them. ON CUE, every family there with children raised up their infants and toddlers. They have a vision and a plan, and think in decades and centuries – while our politicians and even public, for the most part, think until the next election.
Goodbye Andalus. I mean Spain.
Goodbye Greece.
Goodbye Germany and Austria. Jan Sobieski III weeps.
Etc.

AWARENESS EXPLOSIONS
But it’s far bigger than merely Islamic hijra.
In the last few years we’ve seen multiple topics where seemingly-small things have – in some cases literally – exploded into view, very publicly. There is the food crisis – which gets people grumbling about prices and occasional shortages but is not of great concern as yet, but which will only truly be noticed when shelves look like this:
Mass Starvation: Here’s Why Most Of America Is Completely Unprepared – Activist Post
Meat prices are creeping up and up, fed by the Dread Pirate Climate Change, plus now fears of the Dread Pirate Bird Flu. This also affects milk products, and everything that depends on them. Never mind all the food plants, dairies, and chicken farms spontaneously combusting – plus the East Palestine disaster…
We’re now seeing, with the prosecutions persecutions of President Trump, just how deeply-rooted political considerations, never mind financial payoffs and graft, are in the supposedly-impartial Judicial system.

In general we’re looking at at least two, if not more, levels of law enforcement.
And a last-minute addition after the Trump sham conviction: Now, more than ever before, people are realizing the dual-or-more levels of justice in this country. Awareness, at last.
Retail theft has always been an irritant. But now it’s at staggering proportions.

Banks are failing. Financial collapse from relentless additions of debt is inevitable. Inflation is not controlled.

Campuses have been hotbeds of anti-American (never mind anti-Jew) hate. DIE and critical theory and all:
Bill Whittle and Critical Theory of the Frankfurt School
DEATH TO AMERICA is screamed openly, with parallel calls for Communist revolutions – and often from the same mouths. We’re only really seeing this now, as American flags are pulled down, and replaced.
Unmasking the Insurrection: How Gaza Protests Serve a Bigger Agenda – Flopping Aces (bolding in original):
It has been clear from the outset that the organizations fomenting disturbances on American college campuses were effectively political fronts for Hamas, a murderous terrorist organization. Now those organizations are beginning to drop even the pretense of operating lawfully. They are now openly calling for revolution and threatening terrorist attacks here on U.S. soil.
Other actions are not just spoken of in abstract terms either.
They openly want to see the US – the “empire founded on capitalism” – destroyed. See video here.
And many more examples. All with one overarching theme – these movements / changes been building for years, but only as they enter a crisis level do they register with our conscious minds.
ARE WE HARD-WIRED NOT TO SEE THINGS EARLY
It does seem to be that way.
I had the occasion to reread an essay of mine from a few years ago:
Just Give Me Yavneh – Liberty’s Torch (libertystorch.info)
Note how, in case after case, people say “Oh, that can’t happen here” or “That’s just not possible” or some such. Same thing here. And while nobody wants to be in a situation where every single thing that comes across our consciousness should cause twitches of paranoia and fear, lest our system overload from the Boy who cried wolf syndrome, at the same time, worry has a function.
Normalcy bias is a real thing. Stability privilege is a real thing. And things are about to get very, very unstable. The avalanche has started. We’re about to see the anomaly end.
We’re in the endgame of the spreading lotus plant on many, many fronts. Prepare yourself.
