The Return of Scipio

Not for Fortune or Fame, but because God is watching.

Return of the Native

Feb 4

This post will always be on top.

After a twelve year hiatus—see here for the backstory—at long last I will return to the jungles of Central America for three months beginning in February. There are yet jungles there that I have not explored, and this deficiency must be made up. Guatemala, Honduras and Nicaragua have beckoned for a long time, and so I will pack tent, stove, jungle boots and machete and head south of the Rio Grande, probably for the last time. My tentative itinerary can be found here.

I will record all that I see and all that I do here at Scipio. If I can I will post photos as well.

Teen Girls

Feb 12

Posted by Scipio in Culture, History and War | Comments off

Much of History has been moved along by teenaged girls. Mary the mother of Christ was 14. Bernadette Soubirous was also 14. Joan of Arc was 15. Sacajawea was 16.

The Romans married off their girls at 14. An unmarried 16 year old girl was an embarrassment. These days unmarried 30 year old women are as common as dust. What to do with them? Give them cats and boxed wine and leave them be. They are not the carriers of civilization. They are irrelevant to History.

Teach your children well. Especially your girls. They carry the future of man in their bodies.

Bombs Away

If anyone was confused about who destroyed the Nord Stream pipeline, that wonderment no longer applies. But it was clear from the beginning that it was the US—but of course—that engineered this massive and unprecedented attack upon another nation’s infrastructure. And that nation was said to be an ally of the US. With friends like the US…

In this the US regime is acting like the rabid beast it is, thrashing about in its death throes as it tries to cling to its fantasy of world hegemony. Twenty-four hundred years ago Athens did the same as she attempted to hold on to her empire. I did not end well for her. It will not end well for the US.

The United States is exactly what Putin said it was, “An empire of lies.”

Who Should Govern Whom?

Here are Scipio’s “Rules Of Governance”:

  1. Whites should not be governed by blacks
  2. Men should not be governed by women
  3. The sexually normal should not be governed by the sexually abnormal
  4. Christians should not be governed by non-Christians
  5. Citizens should not be governed by foreigners

And there you have it. If these ruled were followed, we would have peace on earth. Because they are not, we have Chicago.

Where’s The Exit?

The US and her sock puppets NATO and the EU thought they could handily defeat Russia through sanctions and making war in Ukraine. Instead, Russia got stronger, Ukraine is going down to utter destruction and all of Europe is entering a depression. So the movers and shakers in Washington are asking themselves, “Now what?” It seems they had no idea they could fail, and no plan if they did fail. So they are doing the only thing in their minds they can do. They are doubling down: more money, more weapons, more sanctions, more threats. The result of these is a 600,000 man Russian army poised to engage and defeat NATO if need be.

Does the US have any kind of strategy for what to do when Ukraine falls? Will the US actually engage the Russian army on Russia’s border? And when she loses and body bags full of dead American boys show up in every American city, what then? What happens to a nation when she is decisively defeated upon a foreign battlefield? Will the Biden regime survive such a catastrophe?

The next six months should clear things up. Have fun. Pass the popcorn. Pay attention. And don’t forget to laugh.

Drop Out

Apparently there was something on last night called the “Grammy Awards”. It seems that they were entirely Satanic and displayed out and out worship of the Devil. Folks who watched them were outraged. But why? If they had not watched them, they would not have been outraged.

And just what did those who viewed such trash expect? The Grammys, like the Oscars, like every part of the “entertainment” industry, are a bunch of coked-out, tatted-up sexual degenerates giving awards to a bunch of coked-out, tatted-up sexual degenerates.

Do you want more peace in your life? Good for you! Then don’t watch the Grammys, and go from there.

I am 69. I have never seen the Grammys or the Oscars or the Olympics or an NFL game or an NBA game. I have not watched television in 46 years. I have no idea what sort of things are shown there.

And don’t tell me.

Isn’t It Ironic?

Folks were so worried about that Chinese balloon that they took videos of the thing and then posted them on Chinese controlled and monitored TikTok.

Perhaps they ended their day with a bowl of Kung Pao Chicken washed down with Tsingtao beer.

I’m trying to picture this in my mind, but I can’t:

New Video Released Shows Double Amputee Stabbing Man Before Police Shoot Him Dead as He Runs Away on His Stumps

Stumpy apparently had lost his legs after a recent altercation with police. (I wonder how that happened?) He didn’t learn from that first incident and went back for more. Maybe he was trying to lose his arms too.

The interwebs are having a field day with this one. Yeah, it’s cruel and all but leave them alone. What with war in Ukraine, earthquakes in Turkey and the skies filled with Chinese balloons, we all need a good laugh.

“That guy should have worked at iHop.”

“What do you call a guy with no arms or legs on your porch?…Matt. And if he’s in the pool?…Bob”

Of course this mayhem happened in California. Where else?

Drip. Drip. Drip.

Put yourself in Zelenskyy’s boots. In the past two weeks most of his allies in the Ukrainian government have been removed from power or have died in a helicopter “accident”. His own people hate him, his army is collapsing, the most powerful nation on earth is moving 600,000 men toward his capital of Kiev, his country is being dismantled, his “ally” the US is getting cold feet about continued support of him, and the European governments are tired of his Che Guevara schtick and his continuous begging missions.

If he tries to negotiate with Russia, he will be killed—either by his own government or by the US. If he loses the war he will be killed. If he tries to flee he will be killed. If he is captured by the Russians…well, use your imagination. He has the most recognized face on the planet. He has nowhere to go and nowhere to hide. Like Hitler in his Berlin bunker, Zelenskyy waits for the end as the Russians send their legions toward Kiev.

Zelenskyy is a dead man, and he knows it. Sucks to be him.

Andrew Tate

I had never heard of this idiot until a few months ago when he was referenced on a YouTube channel I frequent. It seems he is incarcerated in Romania for sex trafficking. The channel’s owner went on and on about how Tate must be considered “innocent until proven guilty”. Nope. That phrase only has merit in the courtroom. It has neither bearing nor meaning anywhere else.

So is Tate guilty? My money is on Romania. To read Tate’s statements on culture, politics and masculinity is to peer inside a very adolescent, deviant and childish mind. He is obsessed with sex, violence, money and living what he calls “a luxurious lifestyle”. His idea of “real manhood” is being able to bash other males into paste and to sleep with hundreds of women. Any 12 year old boy thinks likewise. Tate is a shallow and puerile male and an absurd caricature—almost a cartoon—of a man. His popularity in many circles is yet another marker of our cultural decline.

Tate moved to Romania, saying that he would be less likely to be arrested for sexual crimes there than if he had remained in the US. Oops.

How’d that work out for him? At least in a Romanian dungeon—where I doubt he is living his “luxurious lifestyle”—the world is spared his vulgar and crass stupidity.

So let me get this straight: The Germans are now going to roll tanks into Poland and Ukraine to engage the Russian army. Like that has never happened before.

Ok then.
