Civil War 2.0: Living On The Edge

“I don’t want to be in a battle. But waiting on the edge of one I can’t escape is even worse.” – Return of the King

The past, present, and future walked into a bar.  It was tense.

  1. Common violence. Organized violence is occurring monthly.
  2. Opposing sides develop governing/war structures. Just in case.
  3. Common violence that is generally deemed by governmental authorities as justified based on ideology.
  4. Open War.

Violence and open crime is now endemic in most major cities, so much so that people now just tend to ignore it, and police are incentivized to ignore it and focus on policing people who fail to come to a complete stop.    Again, none of the violence that I could see originated from the Right in July.  None.

I’m holding July at 9 out of 10.  That’s still two minutes to midnight.  I had expected that hot weather and growing unrest would lead to levels of violence that couldn’t be ignored, but I was wrong.  What appears today to be the driver to our current unrest is the prospect of mandatory “immunizations” that don’t appear to immunize.

I currently put the total at (this is my best approximation, since no one tracks the death toll from rebellion-related violence) hanging in at around 900 out of the 1,000 required for the international civil war definition.

As close as we are to the precipice of war, be careful.  Things could change at any minute.  Avoid crowds.  Get out of cities.  Now.  A year too soon is better than one day too late.

Front Matter

Welcome to the latest issue of the Civil War II Weather Report.  These posts are different than the other posts at Wilder Wealthy and Wise and consist of smaller segments covering multiple topics around the single focus of Civil War 2.0, on the first or second Monday of every month.  I’ve created a page (LINK) for links to all of the past issues.  Also, subscribe because you’ll join over 500 other people and get every single Wilder post delivered to your inbox, M-W-F at 7:30AM Eastern, free of charge.

Divorce, American Style

Studies have shown that if a couple doesn’t want to get divorced, they shouldn’t talk about divorce.  Heck, I could even make a joke about Bill Gates’ divorce, but that wouldn’t be PC.

One of the potential outcomes of our current political divide has always been the dissolution of the United States.  As Stein’s Law states:  If something can’t go on forever, it won’t.  And, eventually, the United States won’t, no matter how much we want it to go on.

In a recent poll, people are thinking about divorce.  And even though this particular divorce isn’t like the divorce between a dentist and a manicurist, it still might be fought tooth and nail.  Nope, this is secession.  Based on a June, 2021 survey, it looks like the South is ready to leave, again.  66% of Republicans and 50% of independents (mainly those that think the Republicans are Leftists) are ready to call it quits.

That’s a majority.  Other folks want out, too.   The numbers are far larger than I would have expected, but that shows just how far down the road to dissolution the United States is.

I imagine the stoners in Colorado will keep their weed during the divorce – they’ll have joint custody.

And this is when things are going (relatively) well.  There aren’t hungry people in the streets, and the current problem around here is that there aren’t enough people to work, rather than unemployment.

If you went on the normal split, here’s what the two countries would look like:

Hmmm, Chicago looks sort of . . . surrounded.

I like this version better than the “Red State” pictures because commies love red.  Regardless, it shows counties that are 51%/49% as the same color as a 85%/15% county.  Aesop (LINK) has shown that there’s a lot of purple out there.  And he’s right – the battle isn’t along the same regional lines as 1860.  But when people want to fight, they can and will.  The Balkans is a great example of a “purple” country going to war against itself.

What should scare people is that things are going well, and people want out.  The Right (with almost all of the guns) is preparing for just that.  Most of the groups listed on this map of militias aren’t horribly radical, especially by historical United States norms.  What unnerves the Left is that these groups seem to think quaint old things like the Constitution matter.

The Leftists don’t train with guns. I expect they’re bad Marxmen.

Of course, the Leftist press is pearl-clutching about this, but I downloaded the Light Foot Militia’s guidebook (Hi, FBI agent!) and it’s as tame as a kitten eating warm cream.  The physical requirements for membership include being able to walk a couple of miles in 40 minutes and do 10 push-ups and 10 sit-ups.

Quite a crazy eccentric threat.

But I have goals:

Violence And Censorship Update

I’ve already mentioned the normalization of endemic levels of violence.  There’s a reason I’m staying clear of cities, even though that’s where they keep the Red Lobster®.

Censorship is, sadly, again the big story.  Early in July, Nick Fuentes was kicked off of the major social platforms.  He’s shockingly old.  He’s 22.  He’s marginally amusing, but not at all hateful or dangerous.  But kids liked him, and he challenged the narrative.  So, banned.  Probably for life.  At age 22.

On Soviet Twitter® you can’t use your email to sign in.  You have to use your USSRname.

Okay, that was how the month started.  It got better, right?

No.

I bet they did not see that coming. (Say it fast.)

I’ll just share these horrifying developments.  The Left (and the Libertarians) keep coming back to the argument that speech on Twitter® (or Facebook™, or Google© or etc.) is private speech.  Well, have a nice look at the following.

Okay, this one is a joke.  No one likes Cathars anyway and we should burn them at the stake.  Oh, they’re all dead?  Never mind.

Understand that now the stage is set for an official truth to go along with the official narrative.  Deviation from either will result in being shut down by the Government-Media Complex.

If you think the Military Industrial Complex was bad?  You ain’t seen nothing yet.

Updated Civil War II Index

The Civil War II graphs are an attempt to measure four factors that might make Civil War II more likely, in real-time.  They are broken up into Violence, Political Instability, Economic Outlook, and Illegal Alien Crossings.  As each of these is difficult to measure, I’ve created for three of the four metrics some leading indicators that combine to become the index.  On illegal aliens, I’m just using government figures.

Violence:

Up is more violent, and our perception of violence is down in July.  I guess we’ve just lowered our standards.

Political Instability:

Up is more unstable, and it dropped again this month.  Unless there’s a crisis, I expect political instability to remain low until at least September.  Weirdly, it seems like June-July-August have the lowest levels of instability.  I guess that’s due to it being fresh vodka season in Washington D.C.?

Economic:

Economic measures showed an uptick last month.  Nu-COVID-22 (or whatever they’re going to call it) will probably hit these measures in a few months.  Or the money printing.  Nah.  It’ll be fine.

Illegal Aliens:

This data was at record levels last month, but since we now have the “Biden COVID-19 riddled illegal alien import plan” we beat the record again.  Coming soon to a town near you.

The COVID Trigger?

I haven’t seen anything like the current ‘Rona Rage in my life.  It’s a purity test administered like a religious sacrament.  If you have taken “the jab” you are holy, even though it observably performs in exactly the same manner as a placebo.

But the performance of the #clotshot isn’t the point:  the mandate to take a vaccination to be employed is.  I haven’t had a flu shot, well, ever.  The last shot I had was a tetanus vaccine.  Since my jaw didn’t lock up, well, I’m calling that a win.

But many people have an issue with taking the ‘Rona Roids.  The reasons vary.  And just like the performance of not-vax, it doesn’t matter.  The people who don’t want to take it, won’t.  Many of them will quit their jobs prior to injecting an experimental mRNA therapy with completely unknown long-term side effects.

Recently, Jojo Biden and his Dementia Support Brigade have mandated injections for millions of people under Federal control.  What happens to them if they don’t take it?  Presumably, they lose their jobs.  Or are drummed out of the military.  Or?

This seems to have created a cascade of employers who are following suit by mandating the shot for their employees.  Wal-Mart® surprised me.  Google™ didn’t.

I hear Jesus was kicked out of PrayPal®.

The choice is a stark one, especially for people with families to feed and careers on the line.  Enforcement isn’t a troop of Feds showing up at 3AM.  Enforcement is that no person may conduct business or hold a job without this mark pass.

I wonder what would have been said in previous years?

“You bring the crowns and heads of conquered kings to my city steps. You insult my queen. You threaten my people with slavery and death. Oh, I’ve chosen my words carefully, Persian. Perhaps you should have done the same.” – 300

How would Biden respond?

Fine.  Remember this:

  1. ” If you have taken “the jab” you are holy, even though it observably performs in exactly the same manner as a placebo.”
    Not quite. Placebos don’t kill or maim an appreciable number of the people getting them.

    1. Well, sometimes they do. That is why it is important to strictly observe best practices regarding the placebo control group.

      So why did Phizer immunize the entire (excepting two) placebo control group less than a month after EUA was granted?

  2. John thank you for the write up. My stomach turns more and more each and every day so I do a lot of praying.

  3. Bayou Renaissance Man at: https://bayourenaissanceman.blogspot.com/2021/08/the-first-mark-of-beast-and-there-will.html, has what is possibly the correct view on the ordering of ALL military to take the Jabs/clotshots.

    He says, “However, by imposing this requirement, the government is effectively making it a political litmus test for its military personnel. Obey – and you get to stay in uniform. Refuse – and you’re fired, probably with at least some negative consequences for the rest of your life. It’s a pretty good way for the government to ensure that those potentially not supportive of its policies are driven from the ranks, leaving the military as a whole that much more politically reliable and trustworthy (from their perspective, of course). One might even suspect that they might feel more free to use that military against their political opponents, or against the people, to enforce conformity to their decrees.”

    Read the whole article……at link above.

    1. 30USC something something something says that the federal government can’t mandate the use of an vaccine that is under an Emergency Use Authorization. I assume they are figuring on it being fully approved before the court cases have time to wind through.

      Also, good link on BayouRM to story about recent Portland police inactivity. Prayer group was attacked by Antifa. Completely unprovoked except that Antifa apparently doesn’t like people praying. Police sat in their cars doing nothing as Antifa committed various crimes including assault and theft.

      Also, Proud Boys are neither a militia nor armed. Check out every story you can find and you will never see any indication that any of them have been wielding a gun, a knife, or anything else generally listed as a weapon that qualifies as “armed”. (probably the get-around is that one or more of them used something as a club at one point). There was even a story about Antifa/Proud Boys clashing which mentioned that three people were stabbed. Didn’t say who. You can probably guess from my earlier observation that it was three PB who got stabbed by Antifa thugs.

      1. “30USC something something…”
        Laws are for suckers and peons. The Biden junta just last week told the Supreme Court, “Come over here and make me!”

    2. THE LORD JESUS ,says THE POLICE GANGS AND US MILITARY will be going door to door and a LOT of people will be murdered by them..

  4. There isn’t a neat and tidy way to break up the country but that doesn’t mean it won’t break up. I am in favor of grabbing the Great Plains Canadian provinces, linking them to Alaska to the West, down the guts of the Midwest and Mountain West and down to the Gulf Coast via Texas. The Texas border regions will have to get cut loose and re-gifted like an ugly sweater to Mexico. The Western edge is pretty simple to figure out, minus Boulder and Denver most of the country in that area is solidly red. The East side is harder because of places like Chicago and Detroit smack in the middle of otherwise pretty “conservative” areas.

    1. While we are on a roll, ‘Gaza Striping/West Banking/Sinai-ing’ the peninsula and Sea Of Cortez of Baja California would be my idea of happiness.
      .
      The temporary inhabitants of Baja are all deplorables anyway, so why not [shrugs in disdain].

    2. Why would you cut loose the border regions of Texas? We have the ability but not the will to take them back from the cartels. If the new country doesn’t have the will, then how is it better than the old country?

      You do run into the problem of urban vs rural. In almost every state urbanites are more liberal than ruralites, so no matter how you divy it up, you are going to have large enclaves of urbanites ruining your party.

      1. “You do run into the problem of urban vs rural. In almost every state urbanites are more liberal than ruralites, so no matter how you divy it up, you are going to have large enclaves of urbanites ruining your party.”

        Not after you turn off the power and water. Not for long, anyways.

    3. You’re right, though I think the rest of the folks in Colorado would happily starve out the Denver and Boulder folks by only offering them actual meat to eat.

    1. If it were actually on the final exam, I would choose (d) All The Above

  5. My general observations suggest that 30-40% of medical personnel (doctors, nurses and techs) aren’t inoculated and don’t plan to be for various reasons. If the jab is a litmus test for employment and even half the current number stands their ground that’s going to result in a big hit to the health care system. Perhaps a parallel alternative medicine arrangement may coalesce – if not that’s a ton of folks with specialized (useful) skills underutilized.

    If government contractors in general are required to be inoculated that’s another can of worms. Many MANY companies supply some government agency (federal, state or local) with services or products as a part of their client base. Deliberately turning down those contracts will require the explicit support of the company owners or board of directors – which eventually may result in personal consequences for them and their families.

    1. I was at a meeting last night where a local nurse observed that her hospital is packed, not with Covid cases, but with an inordinate amount of heart and blood issues. The kinds of things that could be side effects of a poorly studied vaccine. Her anecdotal information is that all of them are vaccinated. She asks. Apparently this isn’t being studied, however, because it might not come out the way those in power want it to come out.

      1. Heresolong,MY SISTER IS ONE OF THEM in the Hospital right now,they say she had a stroke,I told them NO SHE TOOK THE JAB AND THEY FOUND HER ON THE SIDE OF THE ROAD “OUT COLD” and had Bloodclots ,She can’t talk or eat,she was paralyzed on one side..NOT from a stroke…

  6. I was in Phoenix this last weekend. I’d have to disagree with your assessment on that place as a Red Zone. Many, if not most of the people I interacted with (and talked to) over the last week leaned Trump/Blue Zone.
    Same with Cleveland/Lorain/Akron – there is a solid core that is not generally outspoken, but is NOT in favor of the Leftist agenda. It runs through NE Ohio (an area I grew up in, and will be moving back to within the next few months).
    In all but the core cities, the small towns/country/farmland areas are only a few miles south. My best guess is that, outside of the most hardened cities with large Black (Urban) populations, there will just not be the support for the Reds that they think they have. The Non-Leftists might not openly revolt, but they WILL passively undermine the repression.

    1. Why half-step?
      Actively undermine the oppression!
      It’s a zero-sum game, and they take 18 years to recruit another convert, but only three pounds of trigger squeeze to thwart.
      If conservatives simply shot twice, we’d be the 90% majority.
      Three times, and the FedGov would revert to its 1890 status. Maybe even its 1790 status.
      Game over.
      QED.

      Think big, aim small, miss small.

    2. Yup, that goes along with Aesop’s purple zone commentary. It’s messy, messy, messy.

      I’m hoping your take is right.

  7. Just watch any enemedia agitprop report and you can hear that the WAR is already declared on the deplorable kulak untermenschen scum muh vaccine “deniers” who think for themselves and understand that humans weren’t immortal before March 2020.
    Comrade kommissar Billy Ayers estimated that 150 million Americans would have to executed in his 1973 abortion Prairie Fire.
    Hussein Hopenchange launched his political career in the Ayers family living room back in the mid 1990’s.
    Look up the G. Edward Griffin at Rense if you haven’t already and the W. Cleon Skousen classic The Naked Communist.
    Be ready to make good commies and they are not humans so don’t waste time with remorse for slithering vermin, send them back to hell to be with comrade Karl and Ol’ Scratch.

    1. Yes We Can!

      Yup, there is nothing coming that is bringing us closer together . . . except helicopters.

  8. My local survivalist group here in the rolling hills of north central Ohio did a neighborhood survey recently . We have seven to three ratio of patriots compared to liberal/leans liberal in our ao . Accountability lists have been compiled and we are ready for the great reset . Precious metals have been stockpiled and the Samson Option is alive and well . When the orcs come they won’t have a clue what happened . ” As they did not love Mercy , neither shall Mercy be given ” KJV

    1. Sounds like Mansfield. Once you get a little bit further from the cities, it’s about 85% patriots.

  9. I’LL tell all you claimed to be MEN,OUR FATHER GOD HAS COMMANDED ALL OF YOU TO STAND UP,and protet your women and children from these devils YOU LOVE,,IF YOU KEEP REFUSING ..YOUR IN REBELLION AGAINST HIM,OUR FATHER KILLS HIS ENEMIES ,if you don’t Value your soul,YOU WILL BE SENT TO HELL WHEN YOU LEAVE THIS WORLD,and everyone leaves at some point in time,..I WOULD ADVISE ALL OF YOU TO STOP KISSING THEIR ASS AND START THE AMBUSHES ,sadly a LOT of you took an OATH TO GOD to stand up,and do as he commanded you to do YET you have refused to HONOR your OATH to him…THE WAR will begin shortly,I’am sad about where your going when you leave this world..

    1. Didn’t read, too much shouting and ranting.

      “Render unto Caesar that which is Caesar’s.”
