Serotonin.


If Houellebecq consistently gets it right. And he has. Incels, Islamic Terrorism, The permissive society giving birth to serial killers and torture porn, The artificially inflated prices paid for art, Post 911 French politics. If he has got all this into eight novels. Why aren't we listening to him? More? Maybe because he doesn't flatter and pander to our vanity. If the last white male club western women dont want to infiltrate is a Michel Houellebecq study group. Good. This isn't the bug room at the local zoo. 
In the novel, Serotonin. Houellebecq takes on his own dead libido and The EU with its bureaucrats. Since the notorious days of the butter mountain Brussels has been managing a surplus of food. Paying farmers a pittance to keep big supermarkets well stocked or not to produce at all. Florent Claude Labrouste is the Agronomist at the heart of Seroronins story. He is a middle aged, clapped out, wage slave with a Japanese girlfriend Yuzo. When he finds out that she has been at it behind his back. With dogs! He does a disappearing trick to another arrondisement of Paris. Drinking himself senseless and reminiscing about past lovers. The antidepressants he has been prescribed choke off what's left of his sex drive, so he goes on a road trip. 
He goes to do a report on French cheeses in Normandy. He goes to see one of his once well to do friends. Aymeric. Finding him also to be living in the ruins of the past. Wife and kids gone. Alcoholism. The EU on his case. And guns. Lots of assault rifles with scopes. Piled up for what's coming. Florent Claude takes one of these guns and observes a sex crime through the scope involving a German tourist and a child. He wants to pull the trigger, but cant.
An industrial sized poultry farm is brilliantly described, A sea of yellow female chicks are forced to live on the carcasses of the dead. While the males who are of no use are fed live into a grinder. To be made into pet food.
Aymeric becomes a revolutionary force amongst the farmers and creates a stand off with the CRS. The French riot squad.
Aymeric now chooses to kill himself in front of the worlds press. And shoots himself.
This is after he has destroyed thousands of euros of farm machinery with his farmers army. Many of the farmers are then shot and killed in a bloody battle with the CRS.
Observing all this is Florent Claude. And you get the feeling his suicide is not far away. Farmers who once inspired no compassion or empathy. Who were viewed once as greedy venture capitalists with massive gardens by communists and other left wingers. Now appear heroic. Producing the nations food for little thanks. As Macron battles the yellow vests for their ultimate subordination into the techno state. He wants to present the working class revolutionaries as Luddites and peasants. People with no clue about global finance. Or trickle down economics. Chemically castrated. Disarmed. Priced down from euros to cents. These are not cattle to be managed. They are men.
Ancient French farms are in a chokehold. 
When nostalgia is frowned upon by globalists. Unless you are thinking of past lovers when your balls still worked. Before the pharmaceutical industry decided to step in to manage a mans savage heart.
A last stand could be a glorious failure or an act of emancipation. Or different routes to the same hole.

The Chess Players.

Image
The Socialist Chess Club of Leith met every Thursday evening in the Turkish Barbers Community Art gallery at the foot of Leith Walk. Maxi Paddock had purchased the Barbers from two Kurdish Brothers with money that his Father had sent him to buy a Range Rover. The Brothers had fled to Istanbul shortly afterwards and left no forwarding address. Maxi was a thirty year old Communist agitator and artist from Central London. He didn't believe in bourgeois programming and thought that the white western imperialist needed to be re-educated through small community interactions like the Chess Club followed by fine tuning that would eventually take place in larger camps once they seized power. Anna Chikatilo was Maxi's partner in the Chess Club and in life. She was a large, formidable trans activist originally from Rostov on Don. She claimed to be a blood relative of the notorious "Rostov Ripper" Andrei Chikatilo. She had been responsible for introducing the strong t...

Green.

Ali Mostin ran a successful business from the backroom of the Mosque in the economic zone of UK23. His organic fertiliser had enriched the gardens of the UK taxpayer since the middle classes had fled the war zone that was London in 2028 and retreated to more peaceful surroundings in gated communities that had sprung up around the outskirts of the Metropolis. "Ali's Sunshine" as it was known served a dual function in a society that now had a problem with rotting corpses proliferating around the destroyed streets of England's capital city. In theory Ali's deal with the Royal Dogfood Company allowed him the collection rights to criminal's corpses that were either too mangled or had decomposed beyond the realms of dog consumption, at least this had been the original idea. As the battles on the streets had become more brutal and the weapons employed more deadly it would not be too out of place to see a stray ear or hand lying in the gutter of any street...

The Rap Game.

After what felt like years of blood sweat and grind Jerry Heller or JQ, as he preferred to be known, had at long last become a major player in the UK23 Hardcore Rap scene. His portfolio of artists included  "Black Hawk Down" "Lil cunt" "White Meatball" And his world beating superstars: "HaHaHamas and the Rotherham Gigolos" From his bunker below London's streets JQ promoted gigs, made promo videos and even scouted for talent with his army of heavily armed robo dogs as they picked through the ruins, bones and the twisted metal carcasses of destroyed cars to send back 24/7 video feeds to JQs state of the art Sandoz Media Console. Just last night there had been a heavily armed battle between The Vietcong and a drone swarm that had resulted in mass casualties on the ground. The battle had become a holly.sensation amongst the British taxpayers living out in gated communities around the outskirts of the big city. JQ blew a blonde dredd l...
