I look at that 1920 map, and Southern segregation becomes completely understandable.

The national and collective interest must always supercede the private and individual interests. We're still paying the price of a Faustian bargain made centuries ago.

Fourth, the fact that White Americans are not composed of any single European nation, but are a blend of all White nationalities, with the Germanic element predominating, means that an ideology grounded in a pan-European "Aryan" racial mythos will always find more appeal here than any form of nationalism rooted in the old 19th-century European nation-states.
A related theory I've had about how ethnic White immigration during the late 19th to early 20th centuries shaped founding stock White America's racial consciousness is that the success of incorporating ethnic Whites into the dominant WASP culture may have conditioned White Americans to believe they could incorporate nonwhites just as easily.
It was not an easy assimilation, though. Italians and Irish brought their racial habits with them, and it caused troubles here. But they were close enough, genetically and racially, to the Anglo-Germanic core that incorporation, largely helped along by ethnic intermarriage and mixed-ethnicity children, was successful, after fits and starts.
The problem with that success merging White ethnics with Anglo-America is that it opened a Pandora's Lox of hubris and recklessness. The newly emerged broadly White core of America, stripped of its ethnic boundaries, came to believe that, based on past successes assimilating the White ethnics, there would be no difficulty doing the same with nonwhite immigrants.
And the economic boom that coincided with the years following the ingestion of White ethnics likewise conditioned White Americans to think that nonwhite immigration would provide similar economic benefits to the country.
Our success assimilating White ethnics, ironically became our failure to assimilate nonwhites.

One is the fact that, as a former colonial power, race and racial conflict is central to the lived experience of all Americans. As the country becomes more diverse, this factor is going to become stronger, not weaker—for the same reason race is such a dominant factor in U.S. prisons.
Correct. This is already happening in America. I wrote about this a while ago, making the point that the salience of Whiteness as a personal identifier will increase alongside the increase in proximate racial diversity.
Understanding that White Americans don't have the strong ethnic touchstones which are familiar to Europeans (owing to our high rate of interethnic marriage), it was always more likely to be a broadly White racial identity that would coalesce in the consciousness of White Americans.
In a 90% White America, Whites reflexively preferred to identify themselves by their particular ethnic ancestry, if they thought about their racial heritage at all.
In 60-50-40% White America, Whites will reflexively prefer to identify themselves by their Whiteness, and because of America's influence on Europe, Europeans will slowly inch toward a similar pan-White identity, converging with the racial consciousness percolating in America.

As a historical phenomenon, in spite of the current state of politics, there are several factors that favor the reemergence of Nazism, in a great power on the world stage, in the United States—on a long enough timeline.

I continue to hold to my hypothesis that the Holocaust narrative and it's associated reign of terror will be mothballed in the coming years due to Israel and World Jewry’s genocide of Gaza. The mothballing plan will be a slow, steady, decay of presence in all entertainment and information media, and Jews will receive orders to not bring the matter up or discuss it with gentiles under any circumstances.
Maybe. But imo it could easily go the other way, too, as jews feeling the heat come round the corner might double and triple down on their virtuous victim hagiography, hoping to leverage "Hyper Holocaust 2: Electric Jewgaboo" to secure the continued loyalty of a sufficient number of (mostly liberal) Whites who will shield jews from mounting criticism.
Either way, jews are in a bind. Loosen their grip on White consicousness and guilt-manipulation and risk White flight from finkelthink, or tighten their grip so much that it provokes a backlash.

It really “cemented” the hypothesis for me that the Holocaust’s presence in our minds was entirely due to career intimidation by Jewish power. I always knew people only publicly supported the Holocaust narrative because the consequences were, without exception, swift and severe. Every case, no matter how slight, deserved exemplary punishment.
I don’t want to mislead people with my comment. While I “doubted” the necessity of such vicious intimidation regarding the Holocaust, at this time in the early 2010s, I still believed it was a true story, even if Jews were exaggerating and being overbearing about it. But as the years have gone on, I think we really have been victims of an elaborate, orchestrated, coordinated confidence scam by the world Jewish community. It really was just atrocity propaganda thought up by the Allies and Jews after the war to deflect away from horrible Allied bombings of civilians in Germany and Japan.

The Purge was a movie with the premise that all crime is legal within a 12 hour period.
I wish there was something similar with social media. A 12 hour period when it's legal to fedpøost like a warrior bard.

Sounds like some kind of jewy shit. Yeah, crack down on universities that take money from anti-Zionists.
If we had real representation and not a zog puppet show, our government would simply pass legislation banning any US university from taking any foreign money.
That would help reorient the priorities of academia.

Yes. Like a drug, it provided a quick rush of insta-validation. But like the dragon chased by heroin junkies, social media addicts must resort to increasingly degenerate posts to garner more and more likes to slake their egos. That’s why we are at the point where people can openly express their delight at an elected official being shot over politics, and nobody bats a fucking eye.

It sure is. I speak from experience during my brief FB days. This was also pre-RP too. I would post stuff solely for the sake of getting that most-sought after “like” click. I foolishly put too much emphasis on getting that like, mainly from actual friends, acquaintances of me–i.e. people I knew and had met in person.
Sure, it was always nice to get a like from someone I barely knew, but it wasn’t that important to me.
It’s a false equivalency of thinking you’ve “done something.” It’s the vacuous, wide-open gate of acceptance. It’s virtual bullshit. Last year someone trolled me on twatter, pinning that tweet, as though it was some conquest or some great victory, just because people liked his tweet. It wasn’t anything serious, but the fact that guy thought it was an accomplishment was what was so troubling.
There really is no country for old men.

Season 2 of tv show “Black Mirror” has an episode with Ron Howard’s daughter (look it up) in which social media approval determines one’s placement in the social order. Really good watch. Recommended.
