Electoral Prisms and the Case for Secession

The fascinating thing about this election is how it’s been “co-opted” by every interested party of any political stripe – and how it’s being spun as “public reaction” to whatever personal bug-a-boo said entity maintains. In our view, such crowing is the work of pretentious assholes. (Naturally constant readers, since we are Alpha-Pretentious-Assholes, you can expect our own bloviation on the matter.)

Let’s examine the playing field:

The Huffington Post claims this “Battle of the Little Big Horn reenactment” is due to the moonbats abandoning Ear-Leader on the field of battle. In contrast, Red State would have us believe it’s because the moonbats stuck WITH Juggears like Reno to Custer.

Zero Hedge wants us to know everybody is impoverished and pissed-off at the farcical economy – while CNBC thinks the robust markets and lack of a $15.00 minimum wage somehow contributed to the Dem’s downfall.

Drudge headlines paint a narrative of folks keening for the benevolent rule of Rockefeller RePubicans – ’cause God Bless the FUSA! On the other end of the spectrum, the KOS Kiddies announce the drubbing is because ye-old DemonRats didn’t go full-on-freaking-commie – now that’s “The-Thirst-Mutilator!”

Soda-ban-man Bloomberg wants in on the game – he thinks it’s all the fault of Jesus-freaks and their guns – and only more government meddling in our bathroom can fix everything. Crazy-eyes Bachmann says it’s because “God hates faggots…” …or something. (We’re still not quite sure on that one… she’s a bit incomprehensible at times…)

Don’t forget us anarchists. The more bat-shit-sovereign-citizens in our midst think this entire thing is a reaction to invasive government eating out our sustenance and civil rights (Full Disclosure – That’s us). The black-block crew… who somehow managed to reconcile “libertarianism-and-extreme-socialism,” (impressive mental gymnastics that), want you all to know that the “Wave of 14” is due to not enough free government healthcare and legal-pot!

Everyone, (us included), is pushing this event through their own little prism, trying to craft a narrative around what was, (in our opinion), most likely an orgasm of anger at an arrogant, amok government that’s fucking up everything it touches. Rage is the only constant in the Dis-United States – regardless of which gaggle of nimrods steer the good ship Titanic into an iceberg. Near everybody intrinsically knows SOMETHING is wrong and that the state is failing. The evidence surrounds us – every federal institution is coming apart at at the seams – due to malfeasance, arrogance, incompetence or combinations of the three. It’s all become too conflicted, too top-heavy, too unwieldy to work anymore.

(In that vein… perhaps EVERYBODY is right… and our only folly is attempting to highlight a single point of failure in a shattered vase.)

Meanwhile, the great wheel rolls along… crushing in it’s path all it was allegedly designed to safeguard. Gone are the lofty ideals or noble intentions held by the inventors – the machine now only exists to sustain itself, and it will burn through every last crumb of the people’s liberty and treasure before it comes to a sputtering crash.

No one can agree on plan of action or who should carry it out – and the only near universal truth at this point – the one thing that pluralities of Americans can align with – is that we hate the bastards running the country – and the sons-of-bitches who vote for’em. Which side? Doesn’t matter.

U.S. citizens are no longer united by beliefs, goals or principles. We have never, in all our lives, seen such a compelling argument for the dissolution of this nation. After all – What does the average person in Boise, Idaho have in common with someone dwelling in New York City, New York? Why should either have to sacrifice their beliefs when they are so alien? The BEST possible outcome is both sets of citizens “experience” Solomon’s compromise – each a victim, subject to having their beliefs trampled upon in an agonizing attempt to make everybody “suffer co-equally.” This is ostensibly the “ideal” scenario – as in the worst case, one set of people are wholly crushed by the other group.

What suckers we are, that we accept shared malaise as the preferred state.

Perchance it’s time to stop pissing on one population’s civil rights to placate another… and maybe we need to cease demanding folks be “satisfied” with a dead, split baby. Perhaps… it’s time to entertain the notion of going our own way peaceably. The current trajectory leads to Civil War or a Hard Tyranny – a near inevitability when a populous has become as Balkanized as ours.

But who are we kidding… the statists – of all stripes, affiliations and denominations – will never deign to that. As C.S. Lewis famously said… “They will torment us without end… for they do so with the approval of their own conscience…”

The self-crowned-nobility of the FUSA would never “peaceably” tolerate anyone crawling out from under their yoke.

So be it.

Amen I say ,don’t want to be anywhere near white progressives and the black masses. Fuck everyone of them. I have no common cause with either. I have in my heart already seceded from them.Now if I could get myself rid of being a tax slave for the IRS.

The problem is there are too many of us, and we have created a ‘soft’ world.

Almost everything we are is because of big business: Gasoline, Natural Gas, electricity, fresh water, sanitation, planes, cars – heated – cooled. Homes with heat / AC – all has come about in the last 100 years.

How about the quality of beef / chicken / pork / eggs / and vegetables all year round. You only get this from corporate farming.

To keep this scheme going we lose more and more of our freedoms. The system becomes so complicated that there is no solution – except much simpler times = less people.

I believe it was Pat Buchanan who wrote in his book The Death of the West that America isn’t a melting pot but rather a salad bowl with our country being progressively divided by different competing cultures and beliefs that only weaken us as a nation.

However, no one should lose sight of the BIG picture. We have limited food, water, and energy resources on our planet and these resources are depleting faster because of increasing populations worldwide.

Those who believe technology will be our salvation by finding ways to access previously inaccessible resources or create endless new resources are deluded by fantasy.

Endless growth is impossible. All empires fail from financial corruption, over extension, resource depletion, war, disease, climate problems, and as always apathy and lack of foresight and determination to accept the painful actions (and sacrifices) needed to avoid total collapse.

Artificially produced stock market gains aside, we are following in the footsteps of the Roman Empire and other failed empires. We are on autopilot for oblivion – and few seem to notice or care.

Secession is something done by choice. We are heading instead for collapse not just because of apathy, greed, and self-interest but a population that is so ideologically fractured with too many accepting dependence on government that there’s no common will to make any attempt to save our country either at elections or via more forceful means.

Letter Re: A Veteran Policeman’s Observations on The Golden Horde
http://survivalblog.com/letter_re_a_veteran_policemans/

James,
A lot has been written warning us of what will happen when the City Dwellers find their homes are untenable and vacate [en masse as The Golden Horde] for “the country”, but I haven’t seen anything on what the make-up of these hordes will be. The generic term “city dwellers” encompasses a lot of territory. Who will they be,what kind of shape will they be in, how will they be armed…all of these need to be examined.

One category needs to be examined, I feel, more closely than others. Since I have seen posts on your site lately dealing with the nitty-gritty, unpleasant aspects of prepping, I think this is a needed look into what’s out there. I’ve been a cop over 20 years, my last uniform assignment before moving to Investigator being a two year stretch of Anti-Crime patrols in the Section 8 Housing projects of my city. This put me into contact with some of the “Worst of the Worst” that will be fleeing the cities in time of trouble. Gang-bangers, common street thugs, dope dealers and users, all have a place in the hierarchy of the streets. And they will certainly be part of what preppers will be facing in times of troubles. Here’s some of what I have learned:

The bottom rung is occupied by the drug addicts and users. They exist, not live as we understand the word. They have no assets, no goals, no drive. But they do have an almost animal instinct to continue living. They will be armed with anything they can steal or lay hands on. Most will have a knife of razor box cutter, and some sort of cheap pistol, or they will not live to get out of the city. Since they have no resources or assets, they will be on the edge of starvation and desperation almost within a day of an event. With no fixed residence or place to defend, they will be hitting the road and coming towards us. They will become violent without any provocation and there will be no negotiating or bargaining with them. They don’t want to hear your story or excuses. All they want is what you have. And have no doubts: They will do anything to get what they want. And this does include catering to their most base instincts of rape, murder and mutilation. Letting someone like this even close to you and what you have is flirting with death.

The next and most numerous will be the drones who make up the majority of the project dwellers. They live on Government Entitlement checks, have no assets and, on any given day will have no more than 3 or 4 days supply of food in their apartments,most of this being refrigerated. There will be a high percentage of females without male companions,will have a large number of children and will be absolutely vicious and violently inclined. Their day to day existence within the defined society they live in demands they be aggressive and violent.They fight more, and are arrested more,than the males they live around. The males will have more serious charges, but the females will have more of them. They too cannot be trusted. If they are drug users, they will, and have, traded their children for drugs, and, based on this proven behavior, will most certainly abandon them or trade them if the situation calls for it. Seeing that you are supplied, they will leave their children in your yard and walk away, counting on your liberal Good Samaritan instinct that has always bailed them out in the past to care for their offspring and justify that to themselves as “doing what they have to do”. Knowing that they will do something as low as this,be assured they will do much worse. They habitually carry razor knives and small pistols such as .25 ACPs and .380 ACPs. They are very dangerous and unstable folks to be around. These females may or may not be accompanied by men. The males may be linked biologically to one or more of the children but will abandon them as easily as the females. These males come from the lower order of males (see next classification) and will be armed as described next.

The next order of classification will be unattached or drone males. These males tend to be convicted of felonies before they are 21 and who hang around the other, more productive males who deal drugs and have money. They will also be the so-called “foot soldiers” of the drug and street gangs. They exhibit sociopathic behavior and have no allegiance to anyone except maybe a family member, usually referred to as a “cousin” or a gang. They live off the female drones by paying cash rent, gained by low level drug dealing and petty crimes, to a female who has Section 8 housing, for a room that they sleep in and usually have no other attachment such as taking meals there.They live off fast food,carry guns of dubious origin and consume massive amounts of drugs and alcohol, mostly beer and cheap brandy and marijuana. They will not have any assets to defend, may accompany the female who rents them a room and will hang around the cities and projects only as long as their cohorts do. They will leave in junky vehicles,steal what they need along the way and kill,rob,rape and pillage their way across the countryside. Their weapons tend to be of the pistol variety although they may have access to shortened, easily concealable shotguns or rifles. Their lifestyle doesn’t give them a secure place to hide or keep long guns,but they will steal and use them if given a chance. They will also have some type of blade weapon and be proficient with the use of them. They are very dangerous to anyone who comes into contact with them. The last and highest order will be the moneyed drug dealer.He will have a flashy vehicle such as an Escalade or Lexus variety. He will have quality firearms, preferring Glock handguns and SKS or AK type rifles and will have ammunition for them in quanity.He will be arrogant and a definite killer. He will have assets to defend and may not leave his comfort zone until forced by authorities or circumstances. He will have “foot soldiers” and a woman traveling with him, but probably not children. He will travel well and be charming when trying to gain confidence or talk himself out of a jam. He will also be vicious and hateful, full of spite at those he sees as having taken away his lifestyle and means of making a living. He most probably will not have a lot in the way of supplies such as food and medical equipment, tending to live in the moment and not for the future. He will be one of the opportunistic “I’ll just take what I need” types. He will be very cunning, having risen to the top of the street hierarchy,and all the more dangerous because of this.

When dealing with all of the above types, caution is the word. Never let them get even a glimpse of what you have. Never let them get past your outer barrier, be that a fence, abatis or boundary line. Its best to keep verbal contact to the barest minimum. A terse: “We have nothing, go away or we will shoot” is a good example. I have seen them be charming and seemingly harmless while edging into a fence gate or otherwise getting closer until they are in range to strike. You must always remember the 20 foot rule (Never let anyone get closer than 20 feet from you at any time). It is important to remember also that the longer they have been roaming and stealing,the better armed they may be, having stolen others firearms and equipment. Seeing an obvious street thug carrying an expensive scoped rifle or an engraved shotgun should be a tip off as to what they are. These type people would never spend money on a gun that may be taken by the law at anytime in their day to day existence. They do worship Glocks and the glamour they see in them. A dealer told me once, when confessing to an assault “I just outs with my Glock .40 and let it holla” as if he had done something great.

I know that most people who read your blogs are aware enough to keep strangers away from their refuge.But if someone has never lived around these types of people,they may not be aware of just how dangerous they really are. As I mentioned,they can be charming,cunning and decietful.They have lived their entire lives off the goodwill of others and The Government and are past masters at pretending to be needy,harmless and “safe”. Guile is engrained in them. I leave you with one short story. In the days after Hurricane Katrina, we were reinforced with officers from other agencies, many states away, who had volunteered to help. (I was not in New Orleans, but on the edge of the hurricane strike) I was partnered with a state SWAT officer from up North. This man was experienced and a “steady hand”. As we walked through some of the power blacked-out , sweltering-in-the-heat projects, he turned to me and said: “This is worse than Mogadishu”. He was scared and had good reason to be. And this was after only three days of no electricity and relief was just starting to arrive. Think about those same areas after a real failure of services and food deliveries. Good Luck. Beware the Stobor. – Ed S.

This further demonstrates the insanity of the belief in the transformational magic of geographic location. And it is an ominous harbinger of the 4GW in the West that William S. Lind warned more than a decade ago would result from immigration combined with the USA’s misadventures in the Middle East.

In “Germany’s Blunder”, Mr. Lind writes:

“For the Establishment, the hard part will be accepting the need to isolate ourselves from centers and sources of disorder.

Centers of disorder will be the growing number of failed states. Sources of disorder will certainly include Islam, thanks to the concept of jihad, even if some Islamic societies are ordered internally. Isolation will mean minimizing contacts that involve flows of people, money, materials and new primary loyalties, such as religions ideologies, into the United States. First and foremost, that requires ending the current de facto policy of open immigration. In a 4th Generation world, open immigration is akin to leaving the castle gate open at night when the Huns are in the neighborhood.”

In “4GW on the Home Front” he observes:

“In a 4th Generation world, invasion by immigration can easily be more dangerous than invasion by a foreign army. At some point, the foreign army will go home. But immigrants stay, and if they do not acculturate, they permanently change the cultural landscape. As the Dutch recently discovered, the changes may go beyond introducing some highly spiced dishes into an otherwise bland cuisine.”

Balkanization of these United States is a notion fraught with danger, it would be a miracle if we could pull it off a smooth as the USSR. A better plan would be to try and all start looking through the same facet.

We already are (balkanization in heart )there is no hope .America is doomed. Only question is how much blood will be spilled.

Listening to a short interview on Erazno y La Choko.

Paco Ignacio Taibo II was discussing the current state in Mexico – During the ‘Porfiriato’ there was a complete censorship of the newspapers. Today we have a situation where there is only half censorship, the ruling class uses the media to its own purpose.

Erazno – excuse me for interrupting but do you think Pancho Villa and Zapata were unusual, almost out of this world leaders? Madero tried to run against Diaz but Diaz imprisoned him.

PIT – They were out of the ordinary but not out of this world, the times generate their own leaders; Zapata and Villa were popular heroes of the lower classes. The presidents that followed Diaz turned out to be [unintelligible] Iturbide and Carranza were counter-revolutionary.

America is already balkanized, it’s just that the shooting hasn’t (really) started yet.

Can’t believe I’m agreeing with Pb but 100% on this point.

Damn bb good comments.

We are soon to be Argentina if we are lucky or Mexico or worse if we’re not.

We’re not going to be Argentina or Mexico. Those countries have far less diversity than we do. More likely precedents are the USSR, Yugoslavia and Rome. I’m afraid Yugoslavia is the closest, except we are vastly larger and more militarized.

This is fatalistic chickenshit spewed by one that has depressingly withdrawn and settled. Do you even know what it means to be an American, as exampled through previous Fourth Turnings. When the shit comes, remind me to find a different foxhole.

This call for “less people” has been around since Thomas Malthus. It is a dangerous road leading to another Holocaust. Times 1,000,000. Or more.

Stop it, people. Condemn it.
