Well-meaning conservatives will have to realize that this regime does not represent them. Our nation is inseparable from race and culture, and the government on the Potomac is not our government. We can\u2019t escape \u201cAmerican\u201d politics, but we shouldn\u2019t waste time thinking about Washington, DC. Instead, we must build something new.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The new administration has a foundational myth: that Donald Trump was uniquely dangerous to \u201cOur Democracy,\u201d an aspiring autocrat who tried to steal the election and then incited an \u201cinsurrection.\u201d Journalists claim it was all based on a lie.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul><li><\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Countless articles use the same words, an obvious references to the \u201c<a href=\"https:\/\/www.jewishvirtuallibrary.org\/joseph-goebbels-on-the-quot-big-lie-quot\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Big Lie<\/a>\u201d technique supposedly used by the Nazis. Joe Biden said this <a href=\"https:\/\/www.dallasnews.com\/news\/politics\/2021\/01\/08\/biden-likens-ted-cruz-to-nazi-propagandist-goebbels-for-helping-trump-spread-big-lie-about-election-fraud\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">explicitly<\/a>. Many people have claimed that <a href=\"https:\/\/wiglafjournal.com\/trump-steals-a-page-of-history-with-big-lie-communications\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Adolf Hitler<\/a> and\/or <a href=\"https:\/\/www.jewishvirtuallibrary.org\/joseph-goebbels-on-the-quot-big-lie-quot\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Joseph Goebbels<\/a> said that the bigger the lie and the more you repeat it, the more people will believe it. Both men were talking about what they thought <em>their enemies<\/em> were doing, not what <em>they <\/em>would do. To quote the \u201cBig Lie\u201d this way is itself a big lie, and it\u2019s effective. What Republican will explain that the Nazis are being misquoted?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I have no doubt that Mr. Trump sincerely believes the election was stolen, so he was not intentionally lying at all, but the \u201cbig lie\u201d and the \u201cinsurrection\u201d are now supposed to be reasons to impeach Mr. Trump for the second time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/ci6.googleusercontent.com\/proxy\/edBhhZehx3zRTGiGtHRcjvvnDo7seTGC-2TzsWA0R86dsZ7aS8H8uTazLkV_Bb4wZ2WWiJMQH1qnxcBRAYBpwJZDjlyCwTdeuqOCEimuifv0DTDoLepLm9gzKt-MFXqg0mYOt0w2YIAgYjI9dPzh=s0-d-e1-ft#https:\/\/www.amren.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/Jamie-Raskin-during-impeachment-600x334.jpg\" alt=\"Jamie Raskin during impeachment\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p id=\"m_-658527990608440108caption-attachment-155085\">Representative Jamie Raskin during the second impeachment trial of former US President Donald J. Trump. (Credit Image: \u00a9 Us Senate TV Via CNP \/ CNP via ZUMA Wire)<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>President Trump did many good things. He may not get enough credit; he was constantly thwarted and reviled. However, his administration was hardly revolutionary. Aside from tweets and confrontation with the press, President Trump governed like a standard Republican. He never used his power to hurt the media or his political opponents. It was his own supporters who <a href=\"https:\/\/www.amren.com\/features\/2018\/11\/the-tragedy-of-trump\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">suffered most<\/a>. His solution to the Big Tech censorship that silenced so much of his base was \u201c<a href=\"https:\/\/www.breitbart.com\/politics\/2019\/03\/19\/donald-trump-social-media-and-old-media-side-with-radical-left\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">just being good<\/a>.\u201d Now, he doesn\u2019t have a Twitter or Facebook account. Passivity like that hardly sounds \u201cauthoritarian\u201d or \u201cfascist.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>At a deeper level, the election <em>was <\/em>rigged against him. <em>Time<\/em> has published a triumphant <a href=\"https:\/\/time.com\/5936036\/secret-2020-election-campaign\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">article<\/a> about how a \u201cwell-funded cabal\u201d \u201cfortified democracy\u201d by changing election laws and controlling speech. If the article had been about a Russian or Chinese election, we\u2019d laugh at the idea that a cabal can \u201cfortify democracy.\u201d Whatever the vote totals were, it wasn\u2019t a fair election.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Democrats <a href=\"https:\/\/www.breitbart.com\/politics\/2021\/02\/11\/live-updates-trump-impeachment-trial-day-three\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">charge<\/a> that <a href=\"https:\/\/www.politico.com\/news\/2021\/02\/10\/proud-boy-insurrection-trump-468353\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">protesters<\/a> thought they were \u201cfollowing orders\u201d when they broke into the Capitol. Some of those arrested will make that claim to defend themselves. But what orders?

Thus, there were four dead Trump supporters and one policeman. Officer Sicknick was certainly a victim, but the latest press reports say prosecutors are having a hard time <a href=\"https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/us\/sicknick-case-still-open-but-prosecutors-stymied-in-filing-homicide-charges-so-far\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">charging<\/a> anyone with homicide.

We don\u2019t really know why.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Ironically, both leftists and Q-Anon protesters believed there was a master plan. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.theamericanconservative.com\/articles\/fail-to-plan-plan-to-fail\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">There was no plan<\/a>. President Trump was talking big, but he didn\u2019t intend a putsch. Has he <em>ever <\/em>followed up on his tough talk? His supporters were a leaderless rabble. Most came for a protest and nothing more. Indeed, video from the day shows some Trump supporters calmly walking through the Capitol, careful to stay within the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.newstalk.com\/news\/trump-supporters-curiously-deferential-to-some-symbols-of-democracy-during-capitol-riots-1135969\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">velvet ropes for tourists<\/a>.

He was an American version of <a href=\"https:\/\/theamericansun.com\/2021\/02\/11\/clay-caesarism-the-failure-of-trumpism-and-boulangisme\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">General Boulanger<\/a>, someone who had a mass following but lacked the will or vision to accomplish anything. The Capitol Farce is the Reichstag Fire for progressives, an excuse to consolidate power and crush opposition. This includes efforts to expel <a href=\"https:\/\/www.newsweek.com\/ted-cruz-josh-hawley-viral-video-calls-expulsion-1562312\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Ted Cruz and Josh Hawley<\/a> for supposedly inciting insurrection. The new Administration has also begun a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.amren.com\/features\/2021\/01\/regime-takes-aim-at-white-advocates\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">repressive campaign<\/a> against white advocates.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Among Joe Biden\u2019s <a href=\"https:\/\/www.amren.com\/commentary\/2021\/01\/biden-is-already-making-your-life-worse\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">first actions<\/a> were to abolish the 1776 Commission and reimpose critical race theory on the federal government.

Progressives wail about the \u201cdesecration\u201d of the \u201ctemple of democracy,\u201d but the Biden White House is lukewarm on defending the national anthem.

Why identify with people who aren\u2019t of your race, especially when you are rewarded by every powerful institution if you claim you\u2019re a victim?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Also, the media should never surprise us. We don\u2019t have a state-run media; we have a media-run state. Media campaigns can <a href=\"https:\/\/www.amren.com\/commentary\/2019\/08\/who-governs\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">determine<\/a> who and what the state prosecutes. Media also determine who can do business or speak online. Men seek power. Why should we be surprised that journalists use power to shut down others? We should remember what <a href=\"https:\/\/www.abbevilleinstitute.org\/review\/john-c-calhoun-and-states-rights\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">John C. Calhoun<\/a> taught us: \u201cPower can only be resisted by power.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For the last half century, the conservative movement has often taught its followers to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.chroniclesmagazine.org\/middle-america-s-road-to-power\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">avoid<\/a> power. The result was that the Left captured the universities, the media, and the bureaucracy. Progressives even control Big Business. Now, every major institution in America opposes white interests. Therefore, what interest do <em>we<\/em> have in upholding such a society? It\u2019s absurd to be conservative when there\u2019s little worth conserving.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In an editorial two weeks ago, <em>National Review <\/em><a href=\"https:\/\/www.nationalreview.com\/2021\/02\/dont-make-the-u-s-capitol-a-fort\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">said<\/a> that the Capitol should not be a militarized zone but rather symbol of \u201ca free people\u2019s self-representation.\u201d I disagree. The Capitol should remain as it is: the \u201cGreen Zone\u201d of an occupying regime as foreign and hostile as anything in Iraq or Afghanistan. It should look the part. MSNBC\u2019s Nicole Wallace <a href=\"https:\/\/www.theblaze.com\/news\/msnbc-host-drone-strike-kill-americans\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">implied<\/a> that the government should consider military strikes against those who \u201cincite terrorism,\u201d meaning the Capitol protests. We aren\u2019t a free people and should stop pretending we are. Conservatives need to grow up or admit they\u2019re just collaborators and phony opposition.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/ci5.googleusercontent.com\/proxy\/TA9Ivf5Dh5M3VtBjVypKRq_Ykw2d2kyjnDJnGjTk8EEeTWjSWlAxY1gUYE-stRotDowpXKWX-pMaISUaiv0v8O25_eGnVbl0lvANdpjcSCHd9ZhaVjDZnqXdVpz5lCed173hrfAIepTJ_5SOAXyE=s0-d-e1-ft#https:\/\/www.amren.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/National-Guard-in-Washington-DC-600x400.jpg\" alt=\"National Guard in Washington DC\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p id=\"m_-658527990608440108caption-attachment-155093\">(Credit Image: \u00a9 Europa Press\/Contacto via ZUMA Press)<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Where does that leave us? Whites are stateless, leaderless, and without representation in \u201cour\u201d government. There is not one figure who defends whites <em>as whites. <\/em>Every other group has leaders who explicitly defend interests. Like <a href=\"https:\/\/www.amren.com\/features\/2013\/05\/when-patriotism-meets-conservatism\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">white South Africans in the 1980s<\/a> and 1990s, we are trapped in an impossible dilemma. Are we part of a larger \u201cAmerican\u201d country that is now at war with its own white past, or are we something different?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I\u2019d say we are something different \u2013 but what? Southern nationalism is a dead end as states like <a href=\"https:\/\/www.amren.com\/news\/2020\/12\/how-georgias-senate-race-pits-the-old-south-against-the-new-south\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Georgia<\/a> turn brown. Claiming we are the \u201ctrue\u201d America makes it hard to forge a separate identity. What\u2019s more, our struggle is worldwide. White Americans face the same opponents and the same challenges as white Canadians, French, Germans, British, Irish, and other members of the European brotherhood. I have far more in common with them than I do with someone like Rashida Tlaib. I don\u2019t care what\u2019s on our passports.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I don\u2019t have the final answer or the ultimate path forward. Something will emerge depending on circumstances and the new challenges that will emerge. However, I do know we need at least to ask the right question before we get the right answer. \u201cHow do we save America?\u201d is no longer the right question. \u201cAmerica\u201d itself has become an almost meaningless word. \u201cHow do we save our people?\u201d is where we need to start. A Western civilization-state is where <a href=\"https:\/\/www.amren.com\/features\/2020\/09\/the-worldview-we-need\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">we need to end<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>What we do in between will be the story of the next few years, perhaps the next few decades. They may prove to be the most important in the entire history of our race. There can be no more illusions.
