Last year I did a show on the concept of civilizationalism, but I thought it was a good idea to revisit the topic now that Trump is back in town. Many of the things Trump has been saying since the election suggest he is headed in this direction, even if he does not think much about the concept. The tides of history are dragging him along toward this new organizational model.
The short definition of civilizationalism is that instead of humanity organized into countries or empires, it will be organized by civilization. Language, culture, history, tradition, and religion are not immutable, but they are not malleable. They evolve over long periods of time, so they feel permanent to us. These are things that resist the best efforts of the ideologues.
The last time I addressed this topic it was in the historical perspective. The show this time is about the nuts and bolts of it. We are seeing the rough contours in the world and even in the behavior of Trump. His desire to annex Greenland and Canada is not much different from Russia reabsorbing Ukraine into the Russian world. Canada and Greenland are part of the American civilization.

If you want a civilization, you have to be completely intolerant of uncivilized behavior. I hope that is coming, I see signs.
Indeed. And to expatiate on your point, you must be willing to use barbarous methods to quell savagery. It is the only way. That, or evict the savages altogether.
I am sorry, but your post is unacceptable, uncivilized, barbarous writing. “Expatiate” is used incorrectly.
-Just a joke, furthering the pedantic grammar nazi theme often appearing here!
Agreed. Black culture will need black law in order to survive. The black judicial system will have to be super simple, incredibly swift, incredibly fair – and incredibly brutal in order to keep them honest. Anything less means a regression to Africa. The fact is that blacks CAN be assimilated under those conditions – we’ve seen it since antiquity where blacks were primarily servants and slaves and criminals. The criminals self-deleted under the old empire with a minimum of muss and fuss and it worked well for everyone. However… I’d prefer that we picked our own damn cotton and built… Read more »
Back in the day, the length of time between a conviction and execution was like 6 months.
You will get whatever you put up with plus a little bit more (people always push the envelope).
Had The Tyrant Lincoln lived, would he have followed through on his Liberia repatriation plans? Talk about an intoxicating alternate history…
Instead, the old-timers came up with the best practical alternative: segregation. Naturally, the enlightened smashed all that. Chesterton’s fence.
It’s amusing and maddening whenever conservatives get indignant because blacks want a separate graduation ceremony or whatever. Talk about obtuse…
Trump’s instincts are right. The Chinese are merely filling a vacuum that the USA left behind as the USA turned its focus to the Levant and the steppes. I read an article about how China invested $2B into Panama to get a project built and my first thought was, we couldn’t invest $3B and do the job ourselves? I find that part to believe. Well, Israel and Ukraine come first. Obama’s much vaunted “pivot to Asia” involved sending military assets into the Pacific, not minding our backyard. As has been said a million times though, this is what happens when… Read more »
No, the U.S. could not build those ports the way the Chinese did. With all the overheads imposed by managerialism, the political interference of special interests and the “10% for the big guy” corruption it would cost 3 times more AND unless it aligns with the economic interests of some oligarch there would be no will to do it. Face it China is an economic powerhouse their trade SURPLUS was 1 trillion $ so they have the capital to spend. Anything the U.S. does requires borrowed money. Chinese are producers, Americans are consumers. I have no idea what’s next but… Read more »
This is a fair point but it speaks to bigger issues with the USA and something that Trump surely knows about, considering unlike most of the people in charge he has actually built stuff in his life. I was reading an article the other day about the California wildfires and in the insurance industry, the “insurance expert” they cited never worked for an insurance company, never priced an insurance policy, he has a degree in political science and worked in liberal activist organizations his entire life. This is the American blob at this point, a bunch of people that do… Read more »
‘No, the U.S. could not build those ports the way the Chinese did.’ I hate commies, but it’s obvious that China is a serious country. Russia is a serious country. The U.S. over the past fifty years? Not a serious country. Instead, a nation and people that dwell in a kind of mass delusion, a fantasy of how life should be, rather than is. Sure! Women can be men! And don’t forget, Drag Queen Story Hour begins at noon. New Amerika places far more value on its woke and feminist agendas than on its own welfare and survival. Not a… Read more »
Yeah, that’s because we have been immersed in an alien culture.
The US has no business trying to out-commie the commies. Most states learned that in the early 1800s. “Public works” like canals were so rife with corruption that many states banned them in their Constitutions.
Rather than skirting the law with public-private ventures, Trump should have just played to America’s strength, the private joint-stock venture. Not only would it probably have come in under budget, it would also have state of the art tech.
Were I Benevolent Dictator, I would harshly penalize nominally American corporations that place their manufacturing in foreign countries and rebuild American industry. We have bright young men who should be building things and starting families.
Good podcast. My experience with the talented 10% of black men is not a bad experience for the most part, we could work something out under a civilizational paradym. Men can get in a room most of the time and talk in real life terms and work it out. But the lunatics in HR and the women, and many times its the women, until we deal with how we have unleashed women in spheres they have no business being in we are going to have a hard time getting to a civilizational model in the west. Make motherhood and the… Read more »
HR needs to go back to being ‘Personnel’. I (the hiring manager) will make all the hiring decisions, you will onboard and pay my new hire.
Unfortunately, using the term, “resource,” to refer to humans is deeply embedded in the project management space, which in turn is deeply embedded in international business culture.
Dehumanization is the point of using that term. Once again, I don’t have good ideas for turning that ship around.
HR is essentially affirmative action for women. Fortunately all the old geezers that frankly – should have been retired long ago… are starting to see that. The horrible lesbian fire fighters come to mind, and the fiasco at Bud Light.
As for Elon Musk and his faithful H1B’s…
Debris seen in sky after SpaceX Starship rocket breaks up after launch
F*** your own face, Elon! 🙂
That hadn’t occurred to me, but it’s an excellent point.
Corporate went downhill when Personnel became HR. There was a lot less tension and better relations, especially if you had to work with women.
Right on the button.
Absolutely not. The talented 10th are terrible. They are the intellectual and financial elite of African Americans and they do absolutely nothing to reign in the lower individuals and they participate in (and even lead) the ridiculous outrages every time some black has an unpleasant interaction with anyone. Just recently an 11 year old girl in Syracuse (IIRC) was handcuffed for 7 minutes because she matched the description of a young girl who ran from a stolen car. Now it’s a big story because, well, reasons. Everyone is pretending this is a life altering event and an affront to all… Read more »
The Talented Tenth should be busy making Liberia great again!
Ugh. I always just accepted the truism “When all else fails they take you to war.” Here I see exactly how it works. Deportations? Stoping the Ukraine grift? Pardons? DOJ reform? Tariffs ?The wall? All the stuff the rubes voted for? Forget that, let’s invade Greenland! It is all about look here not over there.
Also, there is nothing novel about an Artic strategy to contain Russia and China. It’s been part of the MIC playbook since the start of the Cold War.
To paraphrase Gregory Hood, Greenland is Puerto Rico with ice. I’d concede that there are strategic benefits to bringing it under US control, but also lots of financial costs, maybe social costs as well. As usual, the Blob will enjoy the benefits while normie pays the bills/taxes. It also feels like a yuge distraction…a shiny object to keep MAGAtards enthused as Trump “underperforms” on immigration to placate Con, Inc and corporate interests. Z-Man has stated that Trump’s win is not necessarily about policy victories, but about voters breaking free from the Uniparty plantation (sorry if I’m garbling that, Z). OK,… Read more »
Eh, I’d guess we could figure out how to get 50 to 60k Scandinavians to contribute to US GDP.
Handling the Eskimos could be done similarly to whatever is going on in Alaska.
Agreed. Note that expansionism and imperialism were not campaign promises, but immigration restriction was. I hope the Danes announce a plan to Make Denmark Great Again and finally develop and exploit Greenland to the fullest extent possible.
If you have kids then you should be doing everything in your power to make sure they have a civilization to grow up in… Don’t wait on someone else to do it for you…
Amen, bro! We are the vanguard. Your profession is somewhat of an exception — we don’t need to build a white electrical grid, yet, anyway, but if we don’t build parallel white structures, no one will, and our progeny will cease to exist in any meaningful sense.
Trump should dump the expansionist fantasies and get on with what he was elected to do: rid us of the illegal aliens, secure the border, stop the foreign war madness, and re-patriate the economy.
My opinion, if we’re going to talk about our civilization, we’re inevitably going to be talking about the same things the Nazis talked about, which were the things we talked about before the Nazis stank up the joint. All of that scary Germanic/Nordic business. Oh no! I’ll be interested to see how that works. Does the issue age out, or do we have to make a distinction and disown them? Personally, I don’t mind owning a very bad wrong turn— like the Russians, I guess. Shit happens, get over it. Again, my opinion, let’s avoid sperging out like they did.… Read more »
“Canada and Greenland are part of the American civilization.”
Canada, sure, but Greenland? Haven’t listened yet, but cold, humid weather, radar surveillance, SIGINT satellite down links, and some mines are the only things I’ve ever heard as part of “American civilization”; and the civilization part was always military.
Greenland is debatable. But it sure as hell shouldn’t belong to Denmark. I wouldn’t be surprised if all it’s used for by Denmark is to send the EU’s most fanatical “climate scientists” to glaciers with tape measures.
Greenland should be a penal colony.
Greenland has always belonged to Denmark. Wrecking one of Europes oldest nation states is almost woke in it’s shortsighted wickedness
I don’t think grabbing Greenland is wrecking Denmark. Denmark is one of the better EU states in terms of national sovereignty, so I’d hate to make them upset, but we would be relieving them of welfare payments and a whole bunch of useless ice. And we have millions of criminals that Denmark doesn’t have.
Some think its the Europeans fucking shit up for us, and the Obamas and clintons and bushes and so forth are all on that team. Hard to say, but the same people who flooded the Untied states with migrants the past few years were the same people who flooded the EU with migrants during the 2010’s. Time will tell i suppose.
We should offer to take Denmark, too, If only for the women and the functional institutions.
Not being fools, they would almost certainly turn us down.
Good Lord, I hope so. There is hope for Denmark. That hope would vanish if the BFE got its hooks fully into it.
Greenland was ruled by Norway originally. Norway came under Danish rule in the 16th century as did its overseas possessions. Norway was given to Sweden as part of the post-Napoleonic Wars political settlement and became fully independent in 1905. Its old overseas territories continued to be ruled by Denmark.
Magatards and their natural hatred of non-American whites. The Danes were there before the Innuit who are from the far east of Asia.
I like the concept of civilizationalism, but all the other distinct civilizations are generally racially based; China, India, Iran (Persia), Russia (ignoring the Asiatics). Could America organize itself along civilizational lines? At this point I think it’s too late. We’re so atomized we can’t even see ourselves as a unified block. The West has been trying to organize itself along economic lines at the expense of everything else that defines a civilization.
Sure, in the same way the Russian Federation can. They don’t allow the headchoppers into Moscow, or, largely, even into Russia. They are more or less happy with things in the Stans, and the Russians mostly only have to interact with the 10%.
It’s a little bit of a stretch to think Greenland, mainly occupied by Inuit groups is part of American civilization, but Denmark of course is…
Denmark is part of white civilization. America was. AINO is now part of sub-Saharan Africa.
“Language, culture, history, tradition, and religion are not immutable, but they are not malleable. These are things that resist the best efforts of the ideologues.” I wish it were so, but, with the provisional exception of language, these structures have been warped and deformed terribly by the postmodern ideologues of the last six decades. Indeed, this is why postmodernism is infinitely more pernicious than Marxism. It is one thing to have the proletariat slap up a bunch of robber barons in an effort to disperse the means of production. It is something else altogether to use power over knowledge to… Read more »
In CLASH OF CIVILIZATIONS and his logical America-specific follow-up WHO ARE WE?, Samuel Huntington posited these attempts to destroy culture usually fail spectacularly. The PoMo’s are hardly the first to attempt such. I wish someone would do a scholarly work on it, but a recent example has been the explosion of Hawaiian culture after it was all but dead after a century. It is nothing short of astonishing. Unless the embers are extinguished through genocide, and this is what PoMo seeks, they are nigh impossible to extinguish.
My guess is Hawaiian cultural recrudescence has been strongly encouraged by the Power Structure as yet another saber in the guts of America’s white culture. This development is therefoore evidence of postmodern wrecking, not a refutation of it.
There may be some of that since the active suppression ended a while back, but the culture being replaced is in essence an essentially hodgepodge Asian one, mostly American-influenced Japanese. The native and Asian tribes have been at loggerheads since the latter wanted statehood and the former opposed it. But, yeah, while both are anti-white, I would give the edge to the Polynesian hostility. Still, the point about the difficulty of cultural erasure remains.
But was native Hawaiian culture really suppressed? In the 70s, and even into the 80s, the popular culture depicted Hawaii as culturally Hawaiian, not Asian. Indeed, so much so that one would have thought Hawaii was about 75 percent ethnically Hawaiian. Granted, one must not put too much stock in the accuracy of pop culture depictions, but in this case the depictions ring true. If for no other reason that tourism dollars, it would have made sense to husband Hawaiian culture rather than suppress it. I mean, really. You can get your sushi in Davenport, Iowa and your General Tso’s… Read more »
“The short definition of civilizationalism is that instead of humanity organized into countries or empires, it will be organized by civilization.”
That was Samuel P. Huntington’s thesis 30 years ago…
“Do not go into pagan territory…”
Matthew 10:5
Regarding Huntington’s Clash, his stuff enjoyed a revival in the immediate aftermath of 9/11. I first heard about him and Fukuyama at that time and Fukuyama was coming under heavy criticism among people I talked to.
Yes. That Francis Fukuyama hasn’t been laughed off the stage speaks volumes, but Samuel Huntington is begrudgingly acknowledged as a prophet among serious scholars. The reason Huntington really is hated, though, was his subsequent book WHO ARE WE?, which correctly noted that America properly understood was a White Anglo-Saxon civilization and could not withstand the Hispanic deluge in its early stages at the time of the publication. It was a logical inference to be drawn from CLASH, of course, but, racism. It isn’t too much to suggest Huntington was straight-up reviled from the time of its publication to his death.
May he be accepted into the Kingdom for his fealty to the plain truth.
Yes. It became clear that Francis Fuked up…
Sold a whole LOTTA stoopid books tho and became a celebrity, which was the point.
Canada will never become the 51st state – at least, not willingly. We have too many neurotic and retarded old boomers that fear for the loss of their free healthcare and bennies, and east of Morontario and Queeeeeeebec… everyone is a slut, a pervert or a commie – but I repeat myself. Adding us to the GAE would be like tacking another basket case like California onto the nation. A more realistic alternative would be to pick off the western provinces – where we have more in common with folks like Montana and Texas than we do with the UFO’s… Read more »
The writing has been on the wall for the Greater North American Co Prosperity Sphere at least since the early 1990s. Probably the only way it won’t happen, sooner or later, is if Globohomo collapses first. I’m not willing to place large bets either way.
Maybe Trump wants to implement the plan by Coudenhove-Kalergi, with world divided into 5 “countries”, Pan-American Union being one of them.
The EU is another part of the plan, half-implemented for now, but eventually adding Africa too.
Somewhat OT: There have been some very interesting developments in terms of the fate our of civilization and global sanity this last week courtesy of the ADL. Greenblat went to Israel and spoke to the Knesset where he called for using strategies like the pager attacks on global anti Semites. He said the pager attacks are part of the historical creativity of Jews. Given the Jews’ track record of killing people they don’t like that is something that should be taken seriously and it is safer to mull over the worst case scenario of his rather vague comments. As Ron… Read more »

Call out uncivilized behaviors wherever, whenever. No need to get rough, just loud enough to embarrass them (assuming they have even a vestige of social awareness). The burka’d lady jumping the queue, the foreigner who pats your daughter bottom at an event, the RATOS (recent arrivals to our shores) kids getting rowdy on the bus etc. Say something or you will end up fuming over it all day. “That is not acceptable behavior in this country, you will have to amend your actions if you want to get along here”. ps-thought for the weekend–why do alien spacecraft need outside lights,… Read more »
