There is a prevailing sense that the United States will be plunged into another civil war or break-up within the next decade or so. There have been many pundits out there talking about how it’s coming soon that our nation has never been more divided, etc.
And oftentimes the people who regularly listen to these armchair prophets think that this is largely going to be a good thing. The US Federal government is largely perceived as a corrupt institution, with greedy, lazy politicians on one end and stuffy, arrogant judges on the other. And the people who just want to eat, drink, and find enjoyment in their work are stuck in the middle having to deal with all the consequences.
But what these folks don’t realize is that secession and civil war will only serve to make things much, much worse for everyone.
Right now, the state and local governments are, by and large, just as corrupt with just a little higher degree of incompetence. There are local officials in supposedly deep red areas allowing drag queens to parade their deviancy around public spaces like parks and libraries while the police are used to protect them with potentially lethal force. The local school boards in many of these areas seem more obsessed with ensuring “proper” sexuality is taught.
I know the natural response is to homeschool your kids and build a parallel economy away from all of this madness.
But do you honestly believe those corrupt overlords will let you live in peace? You cannot fly under their radar for very long, especially as more and more people homeschool, homestead, withdraw from the popular economy, etc.
And don’t try to think that if you have guns in your home, they’ll leave you alone. Authoritarians don’t flinch in the face of danger either, especially when they have psychopaths working as their enforcers. Psychopaths have no problem killing your children, raping your wives, and dragging your defiant to a secret camp.
We have a golden opportunity right now. We have the gift of foresight, based on mountains of information freely accessible on the Internet as well as people who are perfectly willing to correlate its contents, to a maddening degree.
As such, we all know where our current path is going, but we also can work to avoid it. We don’t necessarily need a prophet to walk around naked in the town square. We just need to side with God and obey Him.
That’s the first step anyway.
Next, we can look at our local communities and connect with like-minded people. A good start is your local Republican party, although you may be able to connect with groups that are not officially affiliated with any party. Bring your skills to the table and volunteer to work for groups fighting for better education, voter integrity, lower taxes, and any other issue that affects your local community.
My point here is that secession won’t be worth a damn if your local leadership is just a bunch of corrupt gay meth heads.
Look, you’re probably not going to be able to change much at the Federal level. At least not right now. But you can address local issues and even make sure that your local leaders are honorable men who fear God. And in the American political system, politics is a bottom-up game.
