Dolan announced last week that the archdiocese is selling off real estate to put aside some $300 million, into a fund meant for the compensation of sexual abuse survivors. Real estate sold off for the fund includes the $100 million sale last year of the archdiocesan headquarters at 1011 First Avenue, after which chancery operations were moved to a former Catholic high school.
The archdiocese has engaged a retired judge to serve as mediator for negotiations toward a global settlement for abuse survivors.

Small societies take the power houses - not "the people"
What is Fabianism
The Fabian Society was founded in 1884 to achieve the same ends as Marx and Lenin.
Their goal was a collectivist state, the abolition of private wealth, & the destruction of the independence of family, church and community.
Unlike communists who called for revolution, the Fabians preferred infiltration, deception & the capture of institutions over time.
Their motto was “the inevitability of gradualness.”
Their emblem was a wolf in sheep’s clothing.
They told us openly what they were. We did not believe them.
How they are destroying Britain
Fabian strategy has always been to hollow out the foundations of the nation & replace them with dependence on the state. Step by step they have delivered exactly that:
1. Borders destroyed
Mass immigration, both legal & illegal, overwhelms housing, schools, the NHS and local communities.
It is not about compassion. It is about erasing national identity, depressing wages, & creating division.
2. Families attacked
Tax punishes marriage. Welfare rewards fatherlessness. Schools undermine parental rights. Strong families mean weak states.
So the family must be broken.
3. Faith and tradition erased
Christian heritage is mocked. History is rewritten as shame. Monuments are removed. Customs are branded offensive. People rooted in faith & tradition resist state control.
So they must be weakened.
4. Free speech silenced
Opinions criminalised. People jailed for words. Protests restricted. Online censorship normalised.
Citizens trained to fear speaking their minds until self censorship does the work for the state.
5. Community destroyed
Local councils stripped. Pubs, clubs & voluntary groups suffocated by rules and costs.
Once these bonds are broken, people are left isolated & dependent on government.
6. Economy gutted
Manufacturing sacrificed. Farmers regulated out of business. Net Zero used to strangle energy & industry. Debt piled high so citizens are trapped in permanent taxation.
Fabianism feeds on decline.
Desperate people turn to government.
7. Health weaponised
The NHS left to collapse, then offered back only in exchange for more control, digital ID & lifestyle restrictions.
A sick population is a compliant population.
8. Education captured
Schools & universities no longer teach people how to think but what to think.
Children are indoctrinated so that tomorrow’s citizens will not resist.
Vatican Prefect Fernández: Link Between Celibacy and Abuse
Full quote: “Certainly what is said about non-possession also applies to us.
As a priest, I cannot presume to fill my sense of loneliness by using another person. Abuse also comes from there, doesn’t it? From my sense of emptiness, of loneliness.
I should look for other ways, not another person who can satisfy these needs. This also applies to the celibate.”
