Is America Doomed to Split Apart?
Townhall.com ^ | November 23, 2020 | Kurt Schlichter

Posted on 11/23/2020 3:12:56 AM PST by Kaslin

Is anyone else too old to start living on his knees? See, submission is not in the cards. The question is whether preserving our freedom means dissolving the Union. And though our alleged betters tell us we are not allowed to think about that horrible prospect, it’s the ruling caste itself that raised the question.

When you get a vile clown like Chuck Schumer promising to “change America” if he steals another Georgia election in the coming run-off, it only reaffirms that we don’t want to “change America” – at least not into the Venezuela-lite he and his coterie of neo-Marxist bother-wedders, fake Indians, and buck-tooth morons want. We’re not living in a dictatorship of the mediocre-tariat, or of anyone else, period. That’s non-negotiable. Nor does any alleged conservative principle of the kind pushed by supine gimps of the Mitt n’ French variety bind us to do so.

And yet there’s a huge chunk of America seemingly determined to suppress, disenfranchise, and even harm us. Save your gaslighting, hacks, I’m on Twitter, and every day I see people threatening us with, on the mild end, “reeducation” to “truth and reconciliation commissions” to outright murder.

I will not be reeducated or reconciled, and if you propose to murder me, I suggest you get your affairs in order.

In a situation like we are in today, with America polarized and the Establishment and its serfs dedicated to an agenda of oppression aimed directly at the patriot faction – oddly, the people who are so eager to rule this country also tend to hate this country – can we even survive as a nation? Should we?

That’s the question I have raised for four years in my conservative action novels, the latest of which, Crisis, just came out last weekend and is already a bestseller. Crisis covers the events leading up to The Split, where to stop the growing violence first initiated by the left, red and blue America negotiate a national divorce and divide the country into red and blue nations. The hero, when he’s not shooting bad guys or mocking liberals – such dully-glowing luminaries as Don Lemon, Eric Swalwell, Mrs. Ilhan Omar’s Brother, and Brian “Tater” Stelter all make cameos as do many conservative icons – must infiltrate blue areas to carry out his missions. Think of California ten years on, with secret police – that is, California ten years on.

Could a Split happen? In some ways it is happening already. In the last month two Californians I know have announced a move to Idaho. Don’t think that California is exporting only liberals – these are conservatives. There is, to some extent, a great sorting going on. Patriots are leaving big blue cities – and the House redistricting is showing that. But that means the blue enclaves are even bluer and therefore even more malignant. Don’t underestimate the lack of wisdom of these people – they are quite dumb and their own boundless incompetence, greed, and unaccountably high self-regard mean that they are absolutely capable of taking the kind of stupid and evil actions that could lead to the country tearing itself apart. Think about what they would spark if they banned guns, of banned fracking and caused millions to become impoverished for the pleasure of Marin County weather pagans, or even if they banned religious teachings they disapprove of. Think that’s crazy? Think the vicious people who sue nuns an celebrate killing babies have some sort of boundary they aren’t willing to cross?

I’m not the only one who has wondered if America might break apart because of leftist idiocy, and some people, in their despair at the venality and stupidity of far too many of our countryman, think it is the only way to resolve our crisis. This is profoundly misguided. Yes, it is daunting. We have a whole younger generation raised on SJW nonsense, but the fact is that it is nonsense. That’s a huge advantage – what we believe in, like individual rights, freedom of speech, and economic liberty, are things history teaches people hold so dearly they will fight and die for them. Who is the millennial who will die for the “right” to have his student loan paid off or to be addressed as “xir”? The left’s alleged values are ridiculous – they are not even values at all, but rather tools they use to leverage power over polite people (“Sure Jimmy, you’re a girl now. Fine. Whatever.”) and a means for losers to find camaraderie. Their whole garbage ideology is built on sand. And we’re going to just hand a big chunk of our country over to these ridiculous people?

Not on your life.

Why do my novels like Crisis sell? Because they ring true, truer and I ever imagined when I started writing about what I thought were outrageously wacky things like criminal misgendering and a PC FBI that put up a statue of J. Edgar Hoover in a cocktail dress to celebrate his commitment to LGBTQS^%!*£0 rights. The first one has happened already; try to tell me the second couldn’t.

But neither Crisis nor I favor tearing apart this country. In fact, the book looks hard at the dreadful costs of such a short-sighted idea. The answer to every problem we have is right there in the Constitution. We have only to insist that we find those answers there and not in any sort of surrender to the tyrannical fetishes of the left and their Fredocon submissives.

This is our country, and contrary to the Establishment and its media simpletons – who we have learned to ignore – the last election was a stunning repudiation of the left. Sure, they think they have managed to (barely) steal the presidential election, but even then, the margin was under 100K across a few states. Down ballot, we demonstrated that we are not beaten and we are not giving up.

Yeah, there’s more to do. The president’s legal challenges must be heard. We need to secure the Georgia Senate seats from mini-Teddy Kennedy and Jeremiah Wright Junior. We need to stop in its tracks any agenda that Grandpa Badfinger’s puppet masters propose, and use our now Roberts-irrelevant SCOTUS to stop any silly notions about rule by decree. We need to ruthlessly redistrict in the statehouses we own while we use those same state legislatures to pass the pro-freedom laws made necessary by the massive fascist campaign by big tech and the big corporations to bring us to heel by cutting us off from access to the mechanisms of society. Our principles need to stop being a blind commitment to what Milton Freidman thought back before business started adopting the politics of the CEOs’ much younger and dumber second wives.

We’re not going anywhere. We’re not retreating. We’re not hiding. We’re not pulling into our conservative shell like some right-wing tortoise. This is our country.

We built it. We feed it. We fuel it. We defend it. And we’re not giving away any of it or ceding a single inch to a bunch of corrupt incompetents with delusions of dictatorship.

This is where we make a stand, for the Constitution and for our country.

Hey leftists, listen up. Shut up for a second and listen good. America is not doomed. We aren’t going to become serfs, and we aren’t going anywhere.

Yes the US nation cannot remain a Union, two competing ideologies are at play and neither can coexist with the other, much like India and Pakistan did in the 1940’s breaking up. I predicted when the Obama regime was allowed into power this nation was doomed to break up into Regional nation States. You are already seeing it with Blue States on the East and West Coasts.

There is no splitting apart in our future.

Either those of us who support the country repel those traitors wishing to destroy it and our Constitution or we fail and probably get lined up against a wall and shot.

Lin Wood told Howie Carr last week that China is behind this coup. It is doubtful that China is going to permit any part of America to split off.

When two fundamentally different groups are at such great odds that communication is impossible, there can be no United States. We can rely on the Constitution and the law all we want.

The enemy doesn’t fight that way. Like good Communists, they scream, attack and burn until they get their way. That’s what they do.

If we are to persevere, we must be willing to shed our blood to win. For if we do not win, we will surely die and our children unto the seventh generation will curse us.

It may not be in the cards for all states, but I am going to help and get Texas out anyway I can. By hook or crook.

Texas Citizens deserve more for their 500 billion they send in every year so that DC can piss it away.

TIRED OF THIS SHIITE

eloquent puffy-chest piece for those with a similar condition - all of whom will wait for the ‘other guy’ to ‘do something’ before they act, which, if they do, will be far too late to effect any changes - like all the warnings before the 2020 elections which were truthful, but no one acted.

Well not sure how they would stop it to be honest, in fact I would think they would be happy about it as it would leave the world wide open for Chinese rule with the US out of the way.

Hopefully. Survival and prosperity in its current configuration just isn’t possible anymore. When a large portion of the left openly talks of murder against conservatives, what “unity” is there to salvage?

We’re not going to coexist with the left and the left isn’t going to coexist with us. Divide the USA into four parts and be done with it. America as a nation ceased to exist many years ago.

Keeping the country together isn’t a doable task anymore. Either we have to beat the left into cringing submission or the left will do it to us. That’s not nationhood; that’s a cold civil war about to go hot.

There is still Article V. At this point what is there left to lose by using it?

Always, always, always, these articles tell us we have to persevere (remember Chief Dan George in "The Outlaw Josey Wales"? "Endeavor to Persevere").

And always, always, always, they don't tell us how, or give us platitudes like "We have to organize! We have to fight! We have to volunteer".

NO ONE on the right is talking about HOW we do all of this, and certainly no on on the right (that I'm aware of) is organizing for "What If", other than "Gun sales are off the charts".

We're like a bunch of engineers on the Titanic, up to our knees in ice water, with the last of the lifeboats full and leaving, arguing over whether ultimately it was the relatively poor metallurgy of the hull plates that allowed for such a huge gash, the greed of the owners that minimized the number of lifeboats on the ship, or a flaw inherent to the design of the ship (the "ice cube trays flooding" theory of why the separate compartments, which should have made her unsinkable, was actually an incomplete design).

We're still all going down, with no plan, and no possibility of rescue, until someone gets concrete with what to do.

And before any keyboard warriors attack me by saying "Well, what's your plan, Big Man?", I don't have one. But I'm not a trained leader and military officer like Kurt Schlichter (whom I admire very much for the record). I don't know what to do, either. I'm just tired of hearing generic "We have to fight" rants.

The United States, as a constitutional republic, is on life support. While I somewhat agree with your comment, I do think the nation can still be saved; but it will take a herculean effort, perhaps even a civil war, tragic as that may be. I hope it never comes to that. But I also know that we can’t go on like this. The dam is about to break, and where the unleashed and uncontrolled waters flow is anyone’s guess.

It needs to start with a financial break. Like my state of Oklahoma.... suppose Okla said we do not recognize the Biden admin as legitimate and hereby cease to cooperate with the feds financially. All okla citizens are giving immunity from federal taxes and obligations. The taxes will be paid to the state of Oklahoma and we will assume the various fed activities we think are important for our citizens, such as SS and Medicare.

Further separation would take place over time.

Without free elections, our country no longer exists. The fascocrats have made it plain that they will do anything to get their way. Time to fish or cut bait. Secede, now.

The left openly talks about confiscating guns, going beyond abortion to actual infanticide, closing churches that don’t worship LGBTXYZ, inflaming racial conflicts, and imprisioning anyone who is not a socialist. All of this makes a civil war inevitable.
