Sir Roger Scruton on why England must learn to lose wars, not win them.

Sir Roger Scruton said this to the Hungarians-
The project of European integration, advanced by politicians and elites of defeated nations in the wake of the Second World War, was founded on the belief that nationhood and national self-determination were the prime causes of the wars that had ruined Europe.
Is he utterly mad? Which defeated nation in 1945 could do anything save whimper piteously?  The only project these fuckers were interested in was not getting hanged or being left to starve to death. What fucking 'integration' could occupied countries demand? As for 'elites,' does Scruton really not know they were getting shot or finding safe havens in Portugal or Argentina or Teheran? Why the fuck is he telling such a stupid lie?

Germany was a defeated nation. So was Austria. Did either have even the slightest ability to undertake any integrative project whatsoever? Don't be ridiculous.

By contrast, eliminating institutional constraints to cross-border trade, and hence endogenous growth, was advantageous to victors, not defeated parties. Completely ceasing to pose a military threat meant some defeated powers could rise economically. But, this did not mean their wealth had been gained through loot. On the contrary. They had rise under adverse terms of trade.

Why did Scruton talk such stupid shite to the Hungarians- a race with a reputation for laser like intelligence- when 'common knowledge' ought to have constrained him?

The answer is in two parts. First, he was a savant of a wholly worthless subject- Philosophy. It was his professional duty to make himself a laughing stock.

The second part of the answer  has, of course, to do with elderly Grammar Skool strivers keeping up with obsolete stereotypes re. the standards of imbecility and ignorance required of English Kinghts errant abroad. Everybody else with an O level in History knows the Wars of Europe had to do with the decay of Empires- that of the Hapsburgs and the Tzars and the Ottoman Caliphs. No doubt, the French failure to develop a credible military doctrine meant that the German general staff would keep fucking up till it became clear that the country would be held down and fucked to death if it did it again.

I suppose what the Hungarians actually heard was an eccentric and insular Englishman saying that them evil Europeans wot we beat on the battlefield nevertheless integrated Europe and, in the process, held down England and started fucking it to death. Perhaps this is routine among English philosophers. No doubt, A.J. Ayer's kept complaining to all and sundry that he personally had been sodomized by the Argentine polo team. Everybody in England had. This was because after Galtieri was humiliated in the Falklands, the defeated power integrated English anuses to its various cocks.

England had no philosopher at the time of Waterloo thus it was not able to claim that the elite of the defeated Nation and had forced our island to perform fellatio on all those smelly cheese eating surrender monkeys as part of the French project of making us swallow its smegma, the way the Germans and the Japs had forced Bertrand Russell to do after 1945. Scruton himself, of course, must have choked twice on Saddam's jizz coz of the two Gulf Wars and the project of integration that inevitably followed it.

What is the moral of this story? England must learn how to lose wars, not win them. Otherwise the defeated power inevitably integrates English orifices into its project of secular, 'enlightened' Sodomy, Socialism, and something yet more supernatural and anally intrusive yet than Creationist Science.
