Merry Christmas!
My thanks for your readership, notes on 2024, and what to expect in 2025
Advent ends tonight; let us all turn our hearts toward the birth of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ, celebrate His coming, and humbly reflect upon our failure to assert His rule in our lands as our fathers did. Our public cultural observations are important, for it is with culture and faith that we establish our authority and influence, without which people fall away. It is only an assertive people and culture which can spread His message, and adherence to His teachings which secures us His blessing. Notice how the obsequious, craven disciples of the World, posing as His faithful, preach weakness and surrender to every new assault? It’s our job, as men, to stand up and resist that, to speak against it; He is the authority, not they.
These same weak men tell us that recognition Saint Nicholas, evangelist and protector of the innocent, is “lying” to children, despite the wonderful opportunity to represent his example and explain his mission to spread faith in Christ in a simple language very young children understand so well. Must we combat a corrupted, secular, market-driven hijacking of our faith and cultural heritage? YES! Do we discard our cultural heritage, and the example of an early, faithful evangelist? NO!
Life is too short to inflict garbage secular “holiday” music upon yourself and your family. That will end soon.
Lecture over. I raise my glass to you all and wish you and yours a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year.
2024 will certainly be looked upon in the future as a year in which decades took place, or, at least, resolved themselves. How the future itself will pan out, we can’t know, but your humble correspondent feels that the vibe shift is highly promising. My advice is to ride it - step out of your comfort zone, build, or build upon, your IRL networks, make alliances, and learn new skills. Always be improving your position, and the position your forces - your family, your crew, etc. - will occupy when you are gone.
In 2024 I released my second novel Faction: With the Crusaders, which I’d been working on for nearly five years; I recorded podcasts that I’m proud of with Pete Quinones covering the Spanish Civil War, with many of the details little-explored in the English language. In 2025, I’ll continue to delve into the Spanish Civil War, with the next piece being an exploration of the 19th century libtards whose ideology - and organizing - set Spain on track for the war. Rather than simply dismiss them as libtards, I’ll answer the question, “What Kind Of Libtards Were They?”
In early 2025 I’ll also be sharing more material from my first novel, Faction, including giving you all a glimpse into the lab with some IRL weapons and equipment as described in the book.
Finally - independent authors live and die by book reviews and book sales. I’ve received several pledges to support me through Substack, for which I am grateful; however, would you consider instead buying my books, giving additional copies as gifts, and posting a positive review on Amazon in the meantime? My eternal thanks; we are pals forever.
Best,
Karl Dahl
Merry Christmas Karl! Hallelujah the savior is born!
