If civil war comes, it will be a war of insurrection. Of many groups against many. Of balkanization. Of neighbor turning on neighbor. Of houses burning and corpses hanging from neighborhood trees. Over and over and over again, and vendettas tossed in. More than a bit of truth here, thinking of Revolutionary War and Loyalists vs Revolutionaries, especially in the western Carolinas. Also Bloody Kansas in the lead-up to the US Civil War.

It is not nationalism that is leading to war. It is globalism that is leading to war against those who would destroy this nation.

I know Sarah Hoyt. She is a good American and great example of the bright side of immigration and, as I have posted elsewhere, I am not a big fan of immigration, legal or otherwise.
Vox is entertaining but bit of a nutball. He has written that the only real citizens are descendants of the ‘original’ founding generation of this country.
Civic nationalism works when there is an emphasis on making new Americans conform to an American culture and nationalism. But “Diversity” has poisoned this process.

Hi.
Between you and me. I hope to get off this planet without having to fill bodybags.
But, oaths are forever.

Our posterity is in the process of being indoctrinated into desiring enslavement.

Of course the United States "will become like the other countries of the world." How could it possibly fail to do so, now that it is mostly inhabited by people from those other countries?
Yep

Hi.
“Will our posterity regret our restraint?”
Difficult question, for I am not a prophet.
Imho, if it all goes south they will regret living in caves.

I like a lot of the writers of Castalia House, John C. Wright especially.
I’m not sure any sort of widespread civil unrest is possible while the poorest people are the most likely to be obese and are the most entertained poor people ever. Also, our poor people are generally unused to hard physical activity outdoors and in all weather. Hard to imagine it happening while these conditions persist.

Yeah, I agree VD has some strange ideas, including his "America is for the direct descendants of those who were here at the founding" idea.
He lives in Italy, but writes a lot about American politics.
I enjoy some of his comic books, though. And I haven't read comics for years, but the idea of conservative themed comics seemed amusing, so I bought some, and they were pretty good.
His blog is interesting, he writes a lot. Even if only 1/4 of the pieces are on topics I care about that's usually ends up being 2 or 3 a week.

I have the same hope.
But I’m not counting on it happening.

A most significant question. Sadly, I think that yes, they will.
I regret our Greatest Generations restraint in the 60s and 70s.

He's the one who wrote SJWs Always Lie.
Oh, btw, he's Native American by descent and lives in Europe.
So much for the "White Nationalist" smear.
Civic nationalism works when there is an emphasis on making new Americans conform to an American culture and nationalism. But Diversity has poisoned this process.
Vox Day also pointed out that "Civic Nationalism" fails because magic dirt is a myth.
