Chapter 24, The Care and Feeding of YOUR Right Wing Death Squad: Splitters!
Copyright (c), 2024, Thomas P. Kratman, Harry Kitchener
One of the unfortunate side effects of this kind of war is ever increasing fracturing / faction- and fractionalization. It’s worth exploring the reasons for this as well as taking a look at some of the likely factions that will emerge.
The fault lines for the factions we can expect to emerge are myriad. We cannot hope to cover them all – indeed, even if we could at this time, new reasons and new factions will emerge which cannot be foreseen.
A sidenote: We are certain that the main thesis of this work – that the left is responsible for setting up the preconditions for the emergence of Right Wing Death Squads and that only the left, by exercising a lot more restraint, and vastly more wisdom, than they have, to date, can avoid it – will be rejected completely by most leftists and all of those most responsible. This, however, is a charge you cannot avoid; you have been working on fracturing the United States for decades in every way imaginable to include by sponsoring, creating, and catering to new ethnic factions, even as you have worked to destroy the border and even to avoid the border, while creating still more factions, by flying in masses of foreigners. Meanwhile, you have done everything not just possible but everything even imaginable to prevent making Americans of those foreigners, cultivating their injuries and resentments, real, imagined, and made up from whole cloth.
Oh, YES, you own responsibility for the future Fractured States of America.
So what are the fault lines we are looking at here? And, while we’re looking at those, let us also look at how some of those fault lines will possibly heal still others.
We have the obvious one, political. But political is a lot more complex than merely right, center, and left.
Consider now, in thinking about politics, the effects of political optical illusions. (Note: You can find a much more thorough discussion of these on Tom’s Substack, as Lines of Departure Numbers 41 and 42, republished October, 2023.)
For these purposes, the really important political optical illusion concerns inability to distinguish at a distance. By this, we mean that if one is far enough left everyone and everything to the right gets jumbled together. This is how, say, Trump or George W Bush get lumped in with Hitler; the left is unable to see a difference because, at a distance, the details disappear. It works the other way, too, when maniacs like, say, David Duke cannot see the difference between a moderate and Lenin.
In this case, the RWDS case, we are likely to see a smaller number of much more competent assassins on the right, and a larger number of blindingly incompetent assassins, rioters, demonstrators, and second string arsonists on the left, with these having the effect of pushing the center to support one or the other. Because, however, it is the left that will be the most glaring, the most obnoxious, and the most inconvenient to the masses, much more of the center is likely to be pushed to the right. Those from the center who get pushed left will be those almost on the left already and those personally injured by RWDS actions. Note, here, that the center is a lot more than a third, and probably on the order of eighty to ninety percent of the populace.
Ideology isn’t the only split, nor even the largest and most obvious one. Yes, we mean the split by race that the left has been cultivating for decades. Oh, certainly, it already existed, but the divisions seemed to be, and possibly really were, beginning to die out. This obviously wouldn’t do for leftist ambitions and, give them their due, they’ve been very successful at increasing the divisions and ramping up the racism from all parties. No, the white soy boys who have embraced anti-male feminism and anti-white racism are neither a very large, a very influential, nor a very effective group, merely because – here’s those optical illusions again – they are close to you.
Here, though, we need to make a distinction between, say, the inner city, ruination by liberalism, plight of minorities and other places. In the cities, where everyone is a minority, the national minorities of blacks, Hispanics, and Asians, are generally joined by a minority or, at most, a plurality of whites. Boston, for example, is down to 44% white from 96% in 1940, New York City to around 37%. Philadelphia stands at a bit over 34% white. Baltimore is not quite 27% white. Chicago is at about 31%. Houston is around 26% white. Los Angeles, under 29%. Just to take a few examples.
The cities are also where the colleges and universities, for the most part, are. Between that, which is to say the left-wing professoriate, the Democratic Party, the feeling of hopelessness among inner city blacks, the alienation of citizen Hispanics as well as the masses of illegal immigrants, the cities stand not only on one side of the political divide, but also one side of the ethnic divide, yet are themselves so ethnically divided that each is its own potential theater of civil war.
As long as we’re talking ethnic splits inside cities, let us not forget the rooftop Koreans who added such a lovely slice of Fuck Around and Find Out to the 1992 Los Angeles riots. Not a whole lot of love to be lost between blacks and Koreans or, perhaps, Asians in general.
Outside of the major cities, though, the ethnic split begins to lessen and even to vanish. Oh, yes, surely, there are minorities and majority minorities in towns and smaller cities all over the United States. But, even if they don’t love each other, they tend also to understand each other perfectly well and not generally to hate each other. These smaller cities and towns also tend, whatever their ethnic make-up, to the more traditionalist, more patriotic, more conservative. And this is true for blacks and Hispanics, as well.
Look to see the Urban v. Suburban and Rural geographic split to largely define the coming war, reinforced by the ethnic split and the cultural splits.
More next week.
