This is the Fourth of July weekend, the high point of the summer and theoretically the most America holiday of the year. Thanksgiving is probably the most American holiday, but the usual suspects have been gnawing away at it. July 4th is expressly a holiday for celebrating what it means to be American. It is the one day of the year when normal people are allowed to be nationalistic and patriotic. You are even allowed to say nice things about the white people who founded the country.
It is hard to know, but it seems that patriotism is on the wane. The days of retail shops decorating themselves with red, white and blue colors are gone. They no longer run sales around the holiday. The media seems to be ignoring the holiday this year, despite the fact their cult controls the formal government. Back in the Obama years they took this time to tell us that the strange man with the Muslim name was actually Abraham Lincoln reincarnated. This year it is silence.
Back in the Bush years, white people were super-patriotic. The crusade against Islam was the main reason. After the end of the Cold War, white people were desperate for an enemy and the usual suspects were happy to oblige. That may have been when patriotism started to decline. By the end of the Bush years many people thought their civic nationalism had been exploited for illicit purposes. The last twenty years have largely confirmed those suspicions.
Of course, patriotism has always been a white thing. Black people are the least patriotic for obvious reasons. The origin story of black people is probably enough to prevent great loyalty to the country. There is no getting around the fact that blacks were brought here against their will. Even though Africans in America live like kings relative to Africans in Africa, the resentment is part of black identity. Therefore, the decline in patriotism is all about white people.
The steady decline in white patriotism can also be rooted in the antiwhite pogroms that have become a feature of America. Every ad maker complies with the edict to erase all white faces from their ads. The exception is the race mixing ads and when they use a white man as an object of ridicule. Movies and television shows have not gone quite so far, but the antiwhite messaging is still there. Of course, politics is drenched in antiwhite rhetoric from the Left with conservatives nodding along.
It is a weird thing to see the regime demanding everyone accept high food and fuel prices as the price to pay for democracy. The implication is that paying the price for bad policy decisions is our patriotic duty. White people can be forgiven for thinking this is just a joke at our expense. The regime is laughing at us. Why would white people make any sacrifices to a regime that calls us evil? Why would anyone be loyal to a system that has produced this corrupt regime?
According to a recent poll, most people think the government is corrupt and a quarter are open to an armed revolt. Interestingly, the reason for this is in the text of that Guardian story. “This deadly attack on the US Capitol stemmed from the false, partisan, pro-Donald Trump belief that Joe Biden did not win the 2020 election. Rioters attempted to thwart certification of the election, in an effort to keep Trump in office.” This degree of lying naturally makes people want to revolt.
This raises the question as to whether patriotism is possible in this age. Back in the Bush years the media was biased against “conservatives” so naturally “conservatives” were patriotic as a way to oppose the liberal media. There seemed to be a line between the media and the political class, even if the media favored one side. Now only a simpleton thinks the media is anything but the voice of the ruling class. As a result, we are constantly reminded of their corruption.
If it is no longer possible for a rational person to feel any loyalty to the nation, then what will hold the country together? In the book After Nationalism: Being American in an Age of Division, Samuel Goldman looks for a new way to unify the nation. Here is a good summary from Chronicles. Goldman describes the three prior unifying identities as the covenant, the crucible and the creed. These were the large frameworks in which patriotic loyalty was cultivated.
There is plenty to dispute in that description, but what the Chronicles review makes clear is that there is no obvious fourth option. The only way to arrive at something close to a civil society again is by first removing the people in charge of the political and cultural institutions. The crazies currently in charge are not going to be talked out of their positions and they are not going to sacrifice themselves for the common good, so that means physically removing them from power.
This is why the regime is so desperate to break up anything that looks like self-organizing by normal people. They understand better than most Americans that the only thing preventing a revolt is confusion in the masses. It is why they remain haunted by the January 6th events. Their determination to put Trump in jail is viewed by them as a matter of self-preservation. It is why the bigots have been enlisted to start attacking Christians who question the regime.
The fact is, the system holds together only if the majority population has no sense of identity at all. Patriotism focuses too much attention on the institutions and the people running them, so that cannot be allowed. Regional, religious or racial identity, at least among the majority population, is dangerous, so it is forbidden. The nature of minority rule is that it must make sure the majority never agrees on anything. Division is now the new creed of the American empire.

Was away for the weekend, apologies if this has been pointed out already, but the LA Times bombing you mentioned in Taki was in 1910, not the year before the Wall Street bombing.
“Regional, religious or racial identity, at least among the majority population, is dangerous, so it is forbidden.”
That’s the meaning of the slogan diversity is strength. In 1984 ignorance is strength meant that if the people of Oceana were ignorant of the party’s true intention of total control, the party will be stronger. In our case, if the American people lack any regional, religious or racial identity, the party will be stronger.
Zman, here is a very good essay on the endemic corruption now present in AINO: https://theethicalskeptic.com/2021/01/13/for-me-to-win-you-must-lose-everything/

I’m not totally convinced that blaks were brought here against their will in all circumstances.

I like to make contrarian meals on propagandistic holidays. While I can get pretty consistent dirty looks from the cashier buying fried chicken and grape soda on MLK day, I don’t think she was able to piece together my anti-patriotic purchase of beef roast, cabbage, beets, mushrooms, and sour cream. Of course this is the first year I have to do borscht after years of more summer appropriate 4th of July kebabs.
Ploppy: I can make a mean borscht, but I do it for New Year’s Eve (Christmas is standing rib roast). I mix a recipe from a few Russian friends here and a Hungarian friend when we were abroad. No sour cream necessary (no one I knew when in Russia used any in their borscht – it’s a Juice thing I believe).
I like to do cheap roasts in the slow cooker, and the leftover meat and gravy ends up as chili, borscht, or barley stew.
Ploppy: The slow cooker is definitely your friend for preparing soups and stews. I use beef short ribs (bought on sale 50% off, of course) for my borscht. And carrots, cabbage, beets, some potatoes, and tomato sauce. The color becomes that beguiling purplish red when you get the balance between the beets and the tomato sauce just right.
Here’s a contrarian ingredient for you.

I gotta disagree with a lot of the commenters here. I fly the American flag with pride and celebrate the 4th of July. Because the flag represent my country, the country that my family and ancesptrs have built and lived in for centuries. The flag and holiday do not represent the current illegitimate regime. They also, didn’t represent the pervious constitutional regime. Both the flag and the holiday predate the writing of the US constitution by more than a decade. And anyway, the current regime has little use for either as they are reminders that we existed before it gained… Read more »

This morning, patriotic songs. Made me sad. The America he imagines, like Dino’s, doesn’t exist anymore. I didn’t have the heart to tell him. “Nice job, sport!”
There’s always been a fashionable strain of disdain for patriotism in general. Typically it’s been relative to something else of the era, like Vietnam, war for oil in the ’90s, or the GWOT in recent decades. I’m guessing most commenters here, particularly the Gen-X’ers and throw in a healthy dose of virtue signaling, are responding like that.
“strain of disdain”. Underrated grunge band if I recall.

“The flag and holiday do not represent the current illegitimate regime.” But the flag literally does represent the current regime. The only time I’d fly it is in my backyard. Say on the 4th of July. Where I could explain to my imaginary cookout buddies, as you did, what it means to me personally. But to fly it publically in front of your house, without context, will likely be interpreted as you still believing and being willing to die for this filthy nation and government as THINGS CURRENTLY STAND. I do get you. Hopefully, people driving by will, at best,… Read more »

karl von hungus: AINO’s government and the massive corporate farms will happily sell anything harvested here overseas. Same as they are selling LNG for record profits to countries impacted by the ridiculous embargo on Russian energy – driving up the price here while simultaneously limiting quantity on stock.

Same with food – just as Britain sold food while the Irish peasants were starving. Due to shortage and costs of fertilizer, plus massive drought and… Read more »
Just wait the Eu has declared Nitrogen to be a pollutant (despite it being 80% of the atmosphere). So farms with lots of livestock (nitrogen from animal waste) will have to close (and they gave themselves the right to force purchase farms that did not comply), This is forecast to close at least 30% of livestock farms in Holland in the next 5 years and Germany. So the 2 main chemical cycles for life on earth (the nitrogen cycle and co2) are now considered pollutants in order for them to crush energy and meat production.

There are a few places that seem to me to get the Russian strategy in Ukraine about right: freeing the two Republics, destroying their military capability and wiping out the Nazi bloc as consistently explaoned by Putin; The Duran is one such site and they simultaneously mock the responses of the West, especially Europe as doing nothing to harm Russia, indeed it’s stronger now than in mid Feb, What the responses are doing are creating a now inevitable famine, destroying the industrial middle class: Germany’s Mittelstand most obviously.

I find it interesting that even on places like the Duran they constantly reach the obvious implication that it is intentional, yet can’t get overt the wall to accept the evidence, so they keep falling back to the magic thinking incompetence argument.

And this is mindless filler just because the comments system is fucked up.
“This is why the regime is so desperate to break up anything that looks like self-organizing by normal people. They understand better than most Americans that the only thing preventing a revolt is confusion in the masses. It is why they remain haunted by the January 6th events.”
Absolutely true. If the 90% who refuse to turn on their brains, did, there wouldn’t be enough lampposts in the country. The Globohomo regime is our worst enemy. Ever.
“In the book After Nationalism: Being American in an Age of Division, Samuel Goldman…” Seriously, with a name like “Goldman,” why do you even bother? One of Z Man’s most effective metaphors is fetching the stick. For example, a liberal calls a conservative a racist and the conservative fetches the stick by loudly proclaiming that he is not racist. Reading anything by a guy named “Goldman” is just chasing the stick. Almost certainly, he is trying to disarm you and even taking note of his work is just chasing the stick. Don’t you ever learn?

The mid-century Germans dismissing Einstein as “Jewish Science” didn’t magically stop physics from working, and quite severely so upon the Japanese.

Celebrating the birthday of America in 2022 would be like celebrating the birthday of an aunt that died in 1997. I suppose you could. But don’t say “Aunt Helen is 106 today.” You say “Aunt Helen, had she lived, and not had that massive stroke when hearing about the President inserting a cigar into the vagina of his intern, would have been 106 today. How time flies.” We can celebrate a country that passed away years ago. Going through the motions. A dead country, with a dead culture full of dead people who don’t know it.
I was always confused about Monica Lewinsky. Was she cute or not? One picture says, Yes; another, No. Could never figure it out.
She was pretty attractive for a humidor.
So its not just Karl whose into into fat birds.
Nah no chubby chaser here. My wife is 5’6” and 115 lbs. That’s why I said cute – I could never tell if she was fat or not or just kind of round face. The humidor comment was hilarious btw
To truly appreciate how vile Clinton was, think about the last time someone passed you a joint but they put the moist part of their lips on it and now it’s wet and how gross that was.
She was slightly above average – 6 to 6.5. So she looked good or bad d depending on the specifics of the photo shot – make up, clothes, lighting and angle. Just like most people.
Bill Clittin’ took what he could get. She was a looker during her Weight Watchers era.
Talk about damning with faint praise.
“I was always confused about Monica Lewinsky. Was she cute or not? One picture says, Yes; another, No. Could never figure it out.” This is why Newton created the numerical scale of female beauty. So we don’t have to pull our hair out deciding if a girl is hot or not. According to the calculation Lewinsky earns a 7. (6 if we factor in gravitational pull).
Oh for F’s sake.

Yeah, I know Moe one of the chosen people. But the Stooges were simply the best.

All 4 of them. Shemp was Moe and Curly’s brother. Joe and Curly Joe weren’t tribe members. I think.
Larry was too, yes.
I just overheard that an unserved arrest warrant was “discovered” in the Emmitt Till kerfuffle.
(I would have said Shenanigans, but that only applies to election felonies).
The family wants “justice” to be served on the 80ish year old white female it’s alleged to be for.
One only hopes the powers that be overplays their hand and pushes more normies to our side of the divide by pursuing prosecution.
We’re all John Demjanjuks in our own country… The pogroms will continue, mercilessly, even on centenarians.
Yes, likely “discovered” by some Lawfare-wageing Tribal, the same bunch still baying on the trail of 100-year old purported Nazi camp guards. What a surprise that would be.
But turn it around; when it comes to the Lavon Affair, the fatal attack on the USS Liberty, the horrendously damaging spying of Jonathan Pollard, or the technology transfers to China, we are supposed to let bygones be bygones.

I’d always thought The Bee-Gees had some affiliation with England, but thought of them as Aussie. After reading Wiki today, I’d say the case for them being an English band is rather solid. The BeeGees were born in England. Around 1945. Played in little singing / skiffle groups. Moved to Australia in their early teens 1958. Stayed about 10 years. Had a few local hits. Moved back to England in 1967. And had their greatest success from then on. I’ve never noticed what kind of accent they speak in. I do consider them in the top 10 of all groups.… Read more »
I’d say The Bee Gees were pretty mediocre until Saturday Night Fever. That movie and album really put them on the map.
The BeeGees were the Beach Boys of the 1970s.
Look at the era these bands came from: poverty. The post WW2 impoverished status of England led to the conditions to make these bands great. It seems to me, outside natural talent, there are two requisites to be a great rocker: rough childhood and putting in the time. Even someone like Paul McCartney (the greatest rock melodicist of all time – you don’t have to say he is the best rocker, but he wrote the best rock melodies), who had a decent financial status as a youth (relative to the times), grew up surrounded by tough, poor kids.

Isn’t the Biden regime the least Anglo and most Hiberno administration ever?
I was not aware of the Irish having a marked preference for wearing little hats. Maybe I am missing something?
SecState, DOJ, and Treasury are all Jewish, and the DNI is half-WASP half-Jewish, but I think that’s it. The only full-blooded White Protestant appears to be Jennifer Granholm (DOE), who was born in Canada. A quarter of Kamala Harris and Deb Haaland’s non-Indian side are also White Protestant. With these exceptions, the entire cabinet is either white ethnic or non-white, which makes sense if you consider the Democrat voter base.

Omeara: On account of your comment I just ordered “The Essential Saker”. I found his website, but lots of guest posts. Is there another place where he himself posts more? I’m not familiar with him but Paul Craig Roberts had good things to say about him.
The Saker, as do most of us, has his axes to grind, but thise axes sharpen up very well, yielding a keen edge. I like that he comes from a Russian Orthodox, white Russian lineage, and a definitely non-communist background.
Don’t know if you will read this, Frip, but the Saker posted an apologia for his not posting for the past few weeks, apparently for reasons of health. He hopes to be back at strength by the end of July. This partially explains the high proportion of guest posts, but he does permit a number of others to post at his site. His apologia contains a list of some of those recent trends and news items he has found to be compelling.

But I think that a kind of ordinary middle-class commoner nationalism has been trying to form at least since the presidency of Richard Nixon. Each time the educated ruling class tries to smash it: they dumped Nixon, they waved a magic Iran Contra at Reagan and managed to dump Trump in 2020.
I just think that every time our rulers think they have eliminated the middle-class menace it comes back stronger.

Still waiting for the “July 4th picnic is cheaper this year” ad. What, no ad ???
Hey, at least covid restrictions have been lifted and now they are allowing us to celebrate the fourth. Ironically not many of want to but then those of who feel this way didn’t give a toss about restrictions.
Well, if they wanted the picnic to be cheaper, bug burgers would have had to be on the menu. Sadly, due to “supply chain disruptions”, there is no infrastructure in place to provide those no doubt scrumptious viands this year, so mums the word about the picnic budget. Next year in Jerusalem, eh?

Division, of course, is a fait accompli when the country–such that it is–is already Balkanized along demographic lines. And this is one reason why the Power Structure has been flooding America/AINO with non-whites. Turning whites into a minority works to demoralize and disempower us, and when we feel weak, we are less likely to idenity, unify and organize. This demarche should boomerang, though. Even though most won’t admit, the large majority of whites don’t want to be a minority. We don’t like going out in public and seeing no familiar faces.

Great point. But we could end up like the Scottish Clans, fighting with each other while we get rolled………I don’t think Destiny is so clear here.
more than causing whites to huddle up, importing all these 3rd worlders is diluting the TPTB’s ability to run the country, creating sanctuary areas. the Romans imported barbarians, who repaid the gesture by taking over the entire country.
karl von hungus: And the English, after barely beginning to climb out of the trough they descended into after the Romans left, invited in the Danes and they took over. Killed a bunch of the men and mated with a bunch of the women, and we ended up with the Englishmen who ruled the world for a time. But such a serendipitous synthesis is rare, indeed.
In addition, don’t leave out nor underestimate the profound change and undermining brought by the Norman invasion of 1066/Battle of Hastings. “Long term readers may know that – like JRR Tolkien – I have a pretty strong loathing of The Normans and their conquest of Anglo Saxon England (and, then Britain)! The motivations of the Norman Conquest, and the new ruling class, were a very horrible mixture of sheer exploitation, vindictiveness and a pridefulness that went so deep as to regard their subject native Saxons as lower beings – of lower value than animals (especially horses!). Nearly all of the the monarchs for… Read more »
The Normans were no different from other elites in Europe or the world then or now.
Bruce has no way of knowing the intelligence of the Normans or Saxons of that time. Normans kept Anglo-Saxon government because it was better than theirs. They were extremely pragmatic.
The Scandinavians, Belgians, Russians and Spanish have a much worse record of governance-especially looking at the last 100 years.
The Normans were also extremely lucky in their timing, since Harold had dismissed his southern forces two weeks before the landing and had defeated Norwegian invaders three days before the landing, thus handing the Normans an unopposed landing, three days’s rest, and time to raid for supplies before Harold’s forces were able to march south from their victory over the Norwegian invaders. For some reason, Harold did not march the entirety of his forces south. The forces he had were entirely composed of infantry. Maintaining the Saxon lines in the face of Norman cavalry and feigned retreats was a problem.… Read more »
As a relative neophyte here, I recall your contributions from when I first was led to this blog. Good to read your words again, Shield Maiden, a worthy member of the latter day fyrd, but now masterless, like ronin. King Harald Godwinson fell in battle, defending his people, and now, as then, we face dissolution. It is a time to move on. First, independence in spirit, and then, hopefully, independence from the dead hand of the past and the demonic lusts of those who would belittle us, and try to place a yoke around our necks. Fix your eye on… Read more »
Best to you, Range Front Fault.
Charlton Heston was in a decent movie about Normans in England: The War Lord, c 1966 or so
IIRC the English we’re winning at Hastings until their infantry broke ranks to pursue the Normans following a failed charge. In doing so their formation open up and was easy pickings when the Normans wheeled back around.
That tactical situation happened with relative frequency from ~300 – 1500. A horse army was checked by a dense infantry pike line, feigned retreat and the turned back on the pursuing infantry when their ranks were opened and they were physically tired by pursuit.

Scored free tickets to a Cubs game in Chicago yesterday.
Stadium full of grillers…BUT…saw only four Covidians the whole night: fatty with her soy-boyfriend, negro (one of eight in total who wasn’t on the field) and one pathetic old lady.
There is hope.
Here is my parting shot for the 4th of July weekend.
Joe Biden or Vladimyr Putin? Who would you follow into battle if your life depended on it?
How far we have fallen.
There would be more hookers and blow following Biden lol. But you made your point… I’m too old for that anyway..
Putin rides bears while Biden can’t even ride a bike. No contest.
I looked up “rhetorical question.” The Biden/Putin question was the example provided.
Vootin’ for Putin or Ridin’ wit Biden
Happy Fourth, everyone!
Last president I would have followed into battle was Davis.
I don’t feel patriotic in the least with our country putting George Floyd murals and rainbow flags up at every one of our embassies, imprisoning Jan. 6 “insurrectionists” (should’ve been hit with trespassing charges and maybe fines) without trials in DC dungeons, attacking goat herders with drones and fighting a cowardly proxy war with Russia using Ukrainians as cannon fodder. I used to love my country and hate the federal government, but even the state government here is worthless after being usurped by Yankee and foreign invaders in the state’s big metro area. Democracy is 50+1= tyranny. The way forward… Read more »
Two homes in the county where I live changed ownership over the past few months. The new owners promptly displayed the rainbow fag flags. My family and I have been trying to think of a counter flag (is there one?) to display. Tom Petty was mentioned in a comment recently. Each time I drive past the homes with the rainbow flags, I think “don’t come around here no more.”
June was the month of pride. Is July gluttony? The mannequins are now fat. America is celebrating everything evil and disgusting.
Melissa: Don’t fly a counter flag or anything overt that can be photographed or recorded. DO try to strongly but subtly isolate them. If they have children, don’t let yours play with them. And if your friends allow such, demonstrate disapproval. Nothing obvious needs to be said, just strong disapproval or social shaming. Don’t act neighborly. Don’t invite them to join any neighborhood association, official or casual. And if someone else does, again – disassociate from them. Don’t respond to them if they approach you – just walk past. You can always say you didn’t notice them if called on… Read more »

It’s too bad because this is occurring in a deep red state/county.
The encounters (known anyway) I’ve had with these type of folk were made back in my university days. On the job, I could do nothing but work with them and keep my mouth shut. What I noticed was that no meeting, no class discussion, no group interaction of any sort could pass with them in attendance where they did not make comment as to how they were *gay*. Example, “Hi, my name is ‘so and so’. Not to be confused with ‘so and so’ in the English department, I’m gay!” This outspokenness was acutely noticeable precisely because it was a… Read more »

While recently shopping on-line for yoga shorts I was assaulted by several hambeasts in midriffs and cellulite squashing spandex modeling this type of clothing. Because these creatures love to exercise apparently.
I doubt anyone is celebrating this newest gaslighting ploy labeled as the ‘body positivity’ movement. The only thing positive about it is the ‘plus-sized models’ likelihood of developing metabolic syndrome. Pushing this as acceptable is Stone Cold Evil.
Sports Illustrated was ahead of the curve–so to speak–on this issue (again, so to speak). Their once glorious Swimsuit Issue featuring a bevy of bikini-clad babes, was consciously polluted by sundry water buffaloes and hippopotami. And, I’m quite sure, hideous vibrants made their appearances, too. I imagine the horrifying trannies will be in the next issue, if they aren’t there already.
Incidentally, if you’d like a second opinion on your yoga shorts, just give me a holler. That field is one of my especialities, and my services are sought far and wide. (-;
Well, heck, if Victoria Secrets can have a Down Syndrome model… 😉
“My family and I have been trying to think of a counter flag (is there one?) to display”

I want to fly the third National flag on Confederate Memorial Day but I’m just a grilling Boomer in deep New England so I haven’t worked up the courage yet.
Lots of NOVA battle flags around, though.

How strange it is that the judiciary has remained fundamentally outside of the Power Structure. Oh, sure, nutso anti-white decisions still come down, and with Biden placing trained chimps on the Supreme Court, its days of independence are probably numbered. In the meantime, however, the judiciary is the only major component of society, outside of small business, where sanity may still occasionally be glimpsed. As such, it may be the only remaining impediment to a truly totalitarian state.
For years I loathed the classic expressions of patriotism that amounted to expressions of blind fealty: stand at the national anthem before ballgames; “support our troops” platitudes; USA! chants; US flag in front of the house and misc bald eagle and stars and stripes mugs, shirts, window stickers … … More than that I loathed the airport – the ultimate Fascist Cathedral. I loathed the sheep who willingly smiled and debased themselves there. I especially loathed those who paid for the express line and loathed even more myself and the rest of the sheep who did not protest that we… Read more »
So what not a different Red White and Blue flag this year? I think Russia uses those colors. Maybe just to piss people off? I quite flying the US flag last year. It stands for gay marriage, trannys, corporate rule, and antiwhite racism.
I get you Mr. C. I think our biggest problem is the infantilization of the entire culture. I think petty acts of defiance are in the past for whoever wants to inherit the future. We need to lead by example, and be serious. I think there is a hunger for men to act the part.

What would we do with these people? Moldbug says they need to be honorably retired and paid pensions. This is absolutely impossible, especially if they wil be replaced. He uses Nazi Germany as an example. All Nazi government workers were allowed to stay on and transition to the new government or retire with pension if they were at retirement age. Even if these people didn’t hate us, there are far too many of them to keep paying after the empire fell. Pre-pandemic we were spending over 8 trillion dollars (all levels, not just federal). We have millions of people working… Read more »
The bureaucracy gets its power because we are in a 2 party democracy with a constant overturn of elected officials. Only the b-crats (and the judges, who have lifetime appointments) can plan policy with long-term goals in mind. The politicians have to look to the next election and create modest goals that can be accomplished in a 2-4 year timeframe (Obama’s big accomplishment was getting a health care law originally proposed by the Heritage Foundation passed, and then seeing it partially struck down by SCOTUS; Trump did a tax cut and some executive orders limiting immigration his successor immediately repealed).… Read more »
Everyone is making noise saying the SCOTUS just did that by limiting the policy=law powers of the EPA (I assume it was EPA, climate change stuff). Presumably this will apply to other agencies.

Really, I don’t buy the “politicians have to think about the next election” excuse for the total failure (from our point of view) of them to pass good legislation. They always manage to pass what the… Read more »
The Democrats are just as bad from the progressive point of view.
Progressives get LBGTQ celebrations, CRT, AA, Trans military, who knows how many gives, walk on bail (if even arrested), feted by media, corporate conglomerates and government – but not UNIVERSAL health care.
The right gets deplatformed, bank accounts frozen/stolen, jailed for complaining, not hired b/c of race, history removed, constantly bashed in media and government. Yeah, the progs got it just as bad as we do.
I’d take a few of those “crumbs” any day.
I agree. Moldbug is proposing to pay them with printed money. Most in the admin state, are probably too stupid to see his trick. I suspect he is not leveling that the plan would be to pay them with printed money and then institute a new currency that would render that payment useless. The problem is how to sock it to them without socking it to us. I feel like his plan is lame from that standpoint. The winning regime will have to buy the people of the country into it.

He has spent his entire life working the demographic replacement of our citizenry. This isn’t Biden’s project – it is his project which is why whoever handed Biden his appointment list to sign in 1/2021, made Mayorkas DHS head. This guy can’t just walk with a fat pension.

We’ve achieved our Permanent Revolutionary Committee. Mexico’s PRI one-party rule, unopposed for 70 years, has come here.
Do unto them as they would do unto you, but do it first.
Most all the workers you describe are on a defined benefit pension plan. They’ll get retirement—after a 5 year investment period and appropriate age—anyway. You simply offer them a buyout based on length of service. Same thing done in private industry when a company goes belly up. No one is guaranteed a fixed pension, really. Even I as a retired university (State) pensioner get $$$ as long as there is money to be gotten. One needs to read the fine print. 😉
LOS will determine the severity of the penalty.
“Their determination to put Trump in jail is viewed by them as a matter of self-preservation.” In 2016 I was shocked when Trump was elected. Believing, as I do, that one of the things TPTB would never let slip away is the election of the President, I wondered how it was going to play out. I’ll admit, I sort of felt he might have actually slipped through the cracks and TPTB had misread something. I wasn’t so much a fan of Trump, but I viewed him as being opposed by people I knew were either traitors or mentally damaged. I… Read more »

My patriotism was diagnosed as terminal during the scroatbomba years and gave up the ghost during Trump. The final nail was the bogus election and I ditched the flag. As long as this dirtbag government remains in place, it won’t see the light of day.
Further, if we continue down this insane path, juneteenth will become the “real” independence day and kwanza the “real” Christmas. As for Thanksgiving, it’ll be honored with fried chicken, black eyed peas and carved watermelon, ie., jack ‘o napes.
That seems to be where “Juneteemph” is heading. Since it’s considered a state holiday here in the peoples republic of NY, we were permitted off that day, if we so chose to. A black female in another department at work took it upon herself to begin casually asking everyone in her dept what they were doing for the day.

Like I said below, Juneteenth celebrates Texas being the last Confederate holdout. Lone Star pride.
It celebrates Black ignorance. Kentucky? and one of the New England States didn’t outlaw slavery for another couple of months.
I like pointing out that there had been no slavery in England since 1240* and that importing that institution from Africa was a bad idea. Give it back to it’s true owners.

If you don’t pay the electric bill, your power eventually gets shut off. Are tptb too dense to understand that, or are they going broke?

“Red Tribe” is not a term I invented, and I think that the meaning of the term is obvious to most people. Playing lumper/splitter word games is not productive.
78: I don’t play word games; I respect the true meaning of words too much for that, along with most of the regular commenters here as well. The fact that you use the term ‘splitter’ as a weapon indicates to me you are probably part of the “they shall not divide us” crowd. I’ll pass.
There is no pejorative to the term “splitter” in the context I was using it. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lumpers_and_splitters “Lumpers and splitters are opposing factions in any discipline that has to place individual examples into rigorously defined categories.”
The Blue Tribe/Red Tribe terms have been in common use since at least 2014. 78’s personal definition of who is Red Tribe is irrelevant. You might as well ask me who I consider white. https://slatestarcodex.com/2014/09/30/i-can-tolerate-anything-except-the-outgroup/
I’m curious what the reason is for your off-the-bat hostility and assumption of bad faith. Just in the mood for an argument today? That’s fine, I get it.
@78 a large segment of the dissident right are apocalypse mongers.
They reflexively attack any positive talk or plans to action. They also seem oblivious that the despair they revel and push is a huge part of the woke left’s successes. Ultimately, id say they’re motivated by the same nihilism as the radical left.

Here in my small Southern town the fireworks show includes that garbage “patriotic” music from Tony Keith and Lee Greenwood. I grit my teeth and try to keep from swearing out loud.
I went to one in the early Bush years and whoever picked the music for it was so oblivious the first song they played was Fortunate Son. I couldn’t help but laugh. I wonder if the national display in Washington will still feature the symphony playing the 1812 Overture this year. Will Tchaikovsky be banned along with all other things Russian?
Most people don’t pay too much attention to song lyrics, Reagan used Born in the USA to help with winning in 84
CCR, really great band
That Toby Keith song, “Courtesy of the Red, White, and Blue” doesn’t quite hold up anymore, not after watching the disastrous conclusion of the Empire’s Afghan Expedition, does it?
I really like Toby Keith, but his over-the-top patriotism in this day and age just doesn’t wear well. As a matter of fact, I think he actually wrote a sort of anti-patriotism song in either ‘20 or ‘21 and tied it to covid or the lockdowns or some such, but I could be wrong.
These days the US is strongly resembling Keith’s song, “As Good As I Once Was.”
Carl B.: If you can avoid alienating anyone you consider critical, then just don’t go. By your own words, there’s nothing worth celebrating in the AINO of today and faux piety towards the mythic America of yesterday is enough to make anyone swear.
Oh God, that Greenwood song makes my skin crawl! To me, it’s a coping drug taken by those who cannot face the reality of our current situation here in the former USA. If Greenwood wanted to really make a statement, he would do the following at his next show; he’d walk up to the mic and say the following, “I know you were expecting me to sing this particular song, but seeing as how there is no more freedom in the country – unless you fall into one of the protected classes celebrated by the ruling class – henceforth, I… Read more »
Not to mention that Greenwood jumped on the “blame the NRA” lefty bandwagon after Uvalde and pulled out of his performance for them. I’m all set with Greenwood.
I have a simple formulation.*
I love Heritage Americans and Heritage America.

*As far as America and Americans. I am a Southerner so not really one of them although my roots are in them and their people. I live in occupied land and will live to see it liberated and my children and grandchildren a free people.
Jack Dobson: Hear, hear. Well said.
I have fully embraced the use of Heritage in place of patriot. While I still use patriot, it is in the context of my heritage and not that of the FUSA skinsuit. To serve my people and to celebrate and propagate the heritage of my people is patriotic because my nation IS my people. In the war on our people, the power of using ‘heritage’ is far better than that of patriot, for I have found it has much greater depth and meaning and thus stirs into those depths in the slumbering hearts of our people when they hear it.… Read more »
I check all the correct boxes for someone who should be very patriotic: Southern, White, veteran, etc. Yet for some reason, this year I don’t think I even want to put the flag out on the 4th. Just not feeling it, you know?

Your instincts are good if you aren’t feeling it anymore. It’s not a holiday for you or me anymore.

One of the main goals of Alphabeti month and Juneteenth is to degrade and eventually destroy Memorial Day, Father’s Day, and the 4th of July as well as co-opt and pervert the traditional meaning of the summer solstice.

There’s a lot more like these too.
In 2025 Trump will be POTUS, Stephen Miller and Kris Kobach will have major White House roles, the GOP will have somewhere between 55-60 Senators, and pressure from the increasingly nationalist House Republicans will lead to something like the RAISE Act becoming law. Take the whitepill.

The reality is that we are a nation filled with many ethnicities. While deporting it down to one ethnicity is possible, it is highly improbable, so much so that it is a practical impossibility. It is also true that there are some ethnicities that can work together and some that can’t (true for both sides). There is a better chance of forming alliances, be they temporary or long term, that can further the interests of most, if not all ethnicities within the coalition. We see this on the left in spades. There is a time and place for division, and… Read more »

Because, adapt and innovate is what white people DO.

On further thought, we bemoan the end of the frontier that forged us.
But what was the frontier? Hardship and danger in the unknown.
What we have now is a different frontier. Unknown, because these condtions have never existed at such scale before.
Remember: all the others can only emulate us. They follow our lead, wherever we land.
This strange new kingdom is ours for the taking, if we but burn the ships.

Bingo! I accept my own failure in this regard as well. The unthinking Whites I come in contact with are the most depressing for me. Whether wrt the “jab” or the current “war” in the Ukraine, or the “corruption” of the electoral process, nothing seems to get through or bother them.
Either I’m paranoid to a pathological degree, or their reality is limited to the equivalent of hallucination. It seems all is lost.

Not hallucinations. Not mind worms. An older language, much older than speech.

On Juneteenth she had her BLM decorations out, for the rest of pride month she had diligently updated the flag to the newest intersectional type that looks like someone vomited a paint kit. Her car is also diligently decorated with the latest bumper stickers and slogans. If partriotism means love of country, she’s the most patriotic woman in our neighborhood.

All the people who regularly fly the flag in my neightborhood are just bugmen. Amazon and fedex deliveries everyday and driving a block to Walgreens. Never even seen one go for a walk or bike ride.
I’ll bet inside they have the full cable package.
I noticed on the boob tube they were tasked with bridging pride month and its celebrations with the 4th of July as if trying to fashion it into one patriotic continuum. We beat the Brit’s then and we beat the bigots now. Yay! Time to celebrate.
So 4th of July is now an LGBTQ holiday
They’re probably the only ones who will be celebrating it
“Other people try to wave American flags, shoot fireworks, and other passe items, but their patriotism might as well be to Narnia than a real country.”
It is, for more and more of those types, a big “fuck you” to the Regime.
I lost track of what all the different colors of the flag represent. Why don’t the freaks just fly a Jackson Pollock painting instead? Seems to me that should cover every possible type of degeneracy.
I never realized until you posted that JP was struggling all those years to create a rainbow flag instead of just selling multi colored canvasses to money launderers.
Bravo!

3g4me: indeed Beck is not on our side. He can do whatever he wants with the Russian anthem, but the reality is it is far, far superior to his Star Spangled Banner. I am so happy the Russians kept it, with new post-Soviet lyrics. The trouble with guys like Beck is they nauseatingly hammer on the socialist this and commie that when attacking scum like Obama, and don’t realize we’re in a racial war, ie.thiis ain’t 1982 anymore.
I know lol
It’s like an historical holiday from a time that was eons ago. I think the cavemen celebrated the 4th of July. But I can’t remember. Been so long since we read about in school.
Correct. But you can only divide and conquer so much – after a certain point people become so divided and fractious that a war of unification has to be fought.
Best of luck on the battlefield fellas. May their body counts be high.
Patriotism is a function of an individual’s birthplace, the home of his ancestors. The French are French patriots, the Turks are Turk patriots and so on. For any one individual it’s an accident of birth, there’s no other reason except that governments encourage the idea. That’s why treason is a crime. Unlike Americans, most of the rest of the world’s population realizes that the guys minding the store are crooks and thieves so their patriotism is focused far in the past. To some extent this is true of the Yankees as well but they are so naive as to regard… Read more »
Interesting how people confuse governments with nations.
I disagree that patriotism is a function of an individuals birthplace.
I know people from Greece who while proud to be Greek are American patriots. Same with some Korean folks I know and even a Russian.
Patriotism is a result of love for ones country regardless of where he was born. Sadly, so many Americans hate patriotism like they hate God. I call them leftists.
No. They may love America, but that is not patriotic. One can only be patriotic for his own *patria*, the land of his father.
Hoagie: They may claim to love their version of “America,” but it’s not the heritage nation the holiday claims to celebrate, and the heritage people who founded said country would regard it as absurd to call them fellow Americans.
Pride in their ethnic or racial heritage is not an inherently bad thing – but only when resident in their own heritage nations. In AINO, it means further dissolution of what historic America purportedly stood for and meant, and further disenfranchisement of its heritage people.
yes. Hyphen American patriotism does not exist. Americans have long been huffing the grateful rejoices of various invaders making good on the American Dream of economic success while their own posterity is replaced, co-opted, and hypothecated into oblivion. (The Chamber of Commerce Approves this message)
Being thankful – and even grateful, for a nation that has opened its borders and bounty and goodwill to outsiders is a nice thing to demonstrate, but it is too often conflated by Heritage Americans with the duty and reverence for the People which made that all possible. Very different things.
Screwtape: Excellent explanation of an important distinction in meaning and intent. You’re a wise man. Hope life is treating you better of late, Sir.
Hoagie is correct—from his perspective of advanced age. I, like him, remember the “old” days growing up in multi-ethnic NYC. The White ethnies—Greece, Italy, Irish, etc. celebrated the 4th with zeal. The flags flew and the bands played. Yeah, there were Irish, Italian, Greek flags flown *behind* the multiple USA Stars and Stripes, but there was never the slightest doubt these people were Americans and proud of such designation. That *was* the concept of a melting pot and it worked—at least until the Leftists ascended and destroyed it. As they say, “you don’t know what you’ve lost til it’s gone”—but… Read more »
No, normal countries understand that they are a people and that the country is only valid because it represents the abstract version of themselves. They don’t need to flee to the past, they just don’t follow the institutional line about the “new patriotism”. They are not nearly as conflicted about the current thing because it does not counter the physical reality of the people as nation. The US is not a people so Americans have invested their patriotism into abstract forms like the flag, or Liberty etc which becomes a problem when the institutions and people who interpret the meaning… Read more »
Go deeper.
The root of patriotism (or similar group fealty) is evolutionary fitness. If your ancestors evolved in a particular environment, then you are descended from a people that are well adapted to that particular environment. Adaption is a fancy way of saying that your odds of survival are maximized if you stay in that environment, which ultimately means defending it as you would your own life. Therefore, the modern notion of patriotism is just a hardwired bias toward the environment of your ancestors.
Goldman describes the three prior unifying identities as the covenant, the crucible and the creed. There is plenty to dispute in that description, but what the Chronicles review makes clear is that there is no obvious fourth option.
Goldmansteinberg forgot to mention race.
Yes, I would have never read further past that name.
Goldbergsilverstein wanted to add unlimited financial and military support to Israel as a unifying identity but did not have the balls.
Yes. That and koksokking.
As RamzPaul keeps saying, anal sex is a core Western value now.
The point of the statement was that there is no obvious fourth option TO UNIFY THE COUNTRY. 40% of the country is non-white off the bat. At least half of the white population sees the idea of white identity as evil. White conservatives often have religious or regional identities that are stronger than any generic white identity. This makes white identity has a non-starter as something that can unify the country. Again, that’s the point of the comment. White identity could at best used as the basis for a factional movement within a multi-racial society, like black nationalism or other… Read more »
The point of the statement was that there is no obvious fourth option TO UNIFY THE COUNTRY. 40% of the country is non-white off the bat. Fair enough, but the solution is still racial: get rid of the non-whites and the country will unify. “Covenant, crucible and creed” are Mickey Mouse-words, vague abstractions like “liberty, equality and brotherhood.” Race, on the other hand, is extremely tangible and concrete, making it much easier to politick on. Rolling back the demography does not require cattle wagons or wooden doors, it just requires economic incentives: they came to America because of the money,… Read more »
Appreciate your optimism but I don’t think we have 100 years.
I don’t see why not. We hold all the aces, we’re just reluctant to play them.
I am reasonably sure the recent mass importation drive across Europe was intended as a mechanism to prevent societies re-organzining themselves after they collapsed the industrial base.
Europe has pulled itself out of many issues, and I think they decided if you pollute the societies there is a huge impediment to pulling together internally.
Connecting dots. Economic hardship begets desperation, which begets whining first and then action second when whining fails. For most, this progression will be street protests evolving into riots and mayhem in the cities. In suburban and rural areas, men will unite in militias and talk seriously of armed action. DC and local authorities will respond by unleashing LEOs, NGs, and Jackboots. As in Ukraine, white guys will start killing white guys in large numbers. Cloud People will smile at the deaths of competent alphas on both sides. That is one potential scenario. It leaves a lot of dead bodies in… Read more »
well maybe some of those white people need killing. not every sperm is precious, contra Monty Python.
Canada’s the same. And today is our national holiday, so I can observe first-hand how dead the appeal of patriotism is here in the capital. I think what holds us together now is just some sort of “Pay me” attitude. It’s like being stuck in a job you hate just for the paycheque. The Mall of America has become America the Mall. People are here just for the goodies, such as they are.
and that is the fatal flaw in the GAE plan; they cannot provide enough goodies. people here for the gibs are well versed in rioting to get what you want. they won’t allow the GAE to rule onfce the gibs run out.
Waving the flag, singing the anthem and shooting fireworks on July 4th is not in itself nationalism or patriotism, but an expression thereof. You wave the flag BECAUSE you are a patriot, not to conjure up patriotism.
Denmark has virtually none of such ado yet nationalist parties poll around 25% – no need for pageantry when you’re living in a white ethnostate where patriotism is taken for granted. The only people who celebrate Constitution Day are politicians – old politicians at that; the young ones are 100% globalist creatures.
Nationalist politicians (as opposed to parties – we have none) would poll about 60% here in the GAE if things were honest, but the GOPe and Dem tax drop it to 30%.
The coordinated effort against any nationalist candidate by the entire establishment makes it nigh impossible. It still amazes me that Trump (tepid nationalist as he is) pulled off 2016. Maybe it was just a perfect storm not to be repeated (drawing Hildebeast as an opponent was a stroke of luck).
c matt: I think a civic nationalist candidate might get 60%. A genuine nationalist/natalist candidate would be lucky to get 25%.
A genuine nationalist/natalist candidate would be lucky to get 25%.
That seems to be the roof in Europe at the moment, although in parliaments with anywhere from 6-12 parties, that would usually qualify for government seats.
The problem is that the nationalist parties are being subverted as soon as they get within striking range of real power. Then you’re back to square one after having spent twenty years voting them up and the immigrants keep coming meanwhile.
That’s also why a third party is no use: they’ll buy them just as cheaply as they bought the Republicrats.
It still amazes me that Trump (tepid nationalist as he is) pulled off 2016.
And it terrifies the globalists; they’re not afraid of Trump himself – they invented him – they’re scared of the rapturous response he got by even breathing in the direction of a racial dog whistle.
Yep, which is why I’d be tempted to vote again if he runs. What have I got to lose?
Dr. Mabuse: If you want to be paid (in Canada or in AINO) better check with the authorities first.

Yeah, one needs to consider how one invests ones money. Banks have wired regulations to prevent “runs”.
That’s “hardwired”, not “wired”.
The country is a shopping mall with the infrastructure of Haiti, in the tundra.
A decorated soldier ruckwalked from Vancouver to Ottawa some 3,000 miles or so to protest the mandates, and you could not see a single non-white in the crowd cheering him on and walking with him to the tomb of the unknown soldier.
Yesterday for the official Canada day festivities, concerts, fireworks and the rest, one is navigating through a mish mash of people, some dressed in red and waving the maple leaf, and English and French are barely heard. A tower of Babel on the ground.
For our elites, patriotism is just a tool in their grift, to be used to fool the marks. That their fraud will destroy the very nation that supports them is the least of their concerns.
Happily, Nemesis, the Goddess of Retribution, waits, impatiently, to punish the hubris of the proud and foolish
I wish she would hurry up and start.
‘Regional, religious or racial identity, at least among the majority population, is dangerous, so it is forbidden.’ No reason for white people to feel patriotic (in the sense of fealty to the state) when the state so clearly works against their interests and impoverishes and enfeebles them. An American acquaintance of mine once opined that the US state held together as long as there was prosperity. When that prosperity is a fading memory and the state squeezes its people to maintain the facade of empire for a privileged few, then patriotism goes out the window. For me the situation is… Read more »
Whites will be lucky to get the reasonably benign treatment that religious/ethnic minorities got under the Ottoman millet system when we become the minority here in the future.
This was a prediction from Russian Kremlin analysts a decade or so ago—that the USA would fracture into ethnically defined regions. I didn’t see where that was off the mark as a valid analysis, just the timing is difficult to pinpoint.
I was thinking that how can anyone be celebrating independence from the distant past when in the current we are living under tyranny. Might as well should be celebrating Zeus, that’s how irrelevant this holiday has become.
hahaha i swear i was just thinking that an offering to Zeus makes as much sense as celebrating the 4th!
Well, we (wife and I) *are* “celebrating” the 4th in a manner of sorts. We are invited over to a good friend’s home in the neighborhood and our/their children are coming into town and will be there as well. I could care less about the TV theatrics and fireworks on the Capital mall—here we have them (fireworks) on the golf course if that’s your thing. The grandchildren will surely be impressed. Let them, it’s their time to believe. The realities of life will engulf them soon enough. One should never miss any excuse to connect with good friends and family.… Read more »

“The only way to arrive at something close to a civil society again is by first removing the people in charge of the political and cultural institutions”
Mrs. Noname and her friends are all fired up to “vote harder” this fall. My 12 year old asked her what was new with that Lin Wood fellow she used to talk about.
It’s worst than irrelevant. Its insulting.
“Come on and celebrate your “Freedom” you stupid proles” is the message I get.
I am uninspired to do anything except to reach for a weapon.
