“That is what to the pain means. It means I leave you in anguish, wallowing in freakish misery forever.” – The Princess Bride

Is the elite division of Space Force called Spatial Ops?

All memes except for the clock and graphs are “as found”. I’ve kept the Clock O’Doom at the same place – though it can notch up quickly.

This is a moving situation, and things are changing quickly. The advice remains. 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 nearly 850 other people and get every single Wilder post delivered to your inbox, M-W-F at or before 7:30AM Eastern, free of charge.

Immiseration

One of the driving forces of a civil war throughout history has been the level of misery that was forced on the populace. Author Peter Turchin calls this Immiseration, and I reviewed his book here, and that link is below. The other factor is an overproduction of elites, which we have in plenty right now – the isn’t enough elite status to go around, so disaffected elites don’t have anything else to do other than, say, run for President (talking about The Donald, here, but also Bloomberg and Soros and Musk).

Peter Turchin’s End Times: There Be Dragons Here

But the immiseration is a Very Big Deal. When the CEO of UnitedHealthcare® got eliminated by a seeming random dude on the street in New York City – that’s another level of violence. It wasn’t (as far as we know today) based on anything else but the misery of the murderer. When people are willing to give up their lives to fight the system, that’s a huge marker that the system is producing so much misery that it’s in danger. The health care system in the United States is horribly broken, and my article about that is linked below.

The Health System Sucks

And I think it is. The recent H-1B visa situation plays to this scenario enormously. My modestly popular article about it is linked below. The reaction to the situation is telling: a very large, very vocal group of Americans reject entirely the injection of a foreign and largely non-assimilating group of people with questionable motives, talents, qualifications, and morality to take over tech jobs from Americans. It’s that simple.

Why Do They Want To Replace You? Control, Oh, And To Increase This Quarter’s Profits

I like old Donald better.

The latest two events on January 1 have yet to fall into a category yet. The New Orleans massacre appears to be the Religion of Peace once again doing what it does best. I can see the Overton Window rapidly shifting from “we can’t have backlash against peaceful Muslims” to “why do we let these people live here?” in real time.

The Las Vegas event is just weird, inconsistent, and puzzling. I guess we’ll see what happens, or, just like the Vegas hotel shooter from years ago, it’ll be memoryholed and what happens in Vegas, stays in Vegas.

I take, especially the CEO murder, as a very bad sign that misery levels are going up. Be advised.

Violence and Censorship Update

The fact that a far-GloboLeft DA in New York decided that Daniel Penny had to stand trial for acting in good faith to try to protect other subway riders from a danger says a lot, and is in fact the definition of number 8 on the Civil War 2.0 Scale. People in power want violence, so they do whatever is necessary to justify and sanctify the violence – including prosecuting good Samaritans like Mr. Penny, who was defined as “the white man” by the prosecuting attorney.

This is what happens when you encourage crime and discourage citizen involvement.

The prosecuting attorney? A paperwork American (not born here) who is in a lesbian relationship with another paperwork American who makes “art” for a living. Yeah. I feel the love from these people.

Outside of some mass banning of people who hurt Elon’s feelings on X® (that may have been reversed) most of the month has been fairly quiet. Elon even unbanned American Renaissance® founder Jared Taylor, allowing a very dissenting voice free.

Oh, and the whole, “killing CEO” thing.

Yeah, the CEOs can eat a bag of BFYTW.

PENULTIMATE VERSION: Biden/Harris Misery Index

Let’s take a look to see how we’ve done this month, and get a next to final look at what Biden has done.

Up. Again.

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:

Violence in December is down slightly, (remember, New Orleans is in January).

Political Instability:

Down is more stable, and it is down slightly.

Economic:

The economy has started south, and we’ll see if this is the start of a trend.

Illegal Aliens:

Will Trump stop them from coming?

The Window

One of the tools of the GloboLeftElite is the use of controlled media to make sure that we don’t talk to each other; to make things people are commonly feeling simply not acceptable topics of discussion.

The world has changed, radically.

I regularly go on to /POL/ because, for the longest time, it was simply the easiest way to find out what was really going on in the world. Mainstream media is entirely co-opted and biased – finding a journalist that has TradRight beliefs is, well, rare. When there is one, they fire him – look at Tucker Carlson.

No electric cars on Greenland, right?

The Overton Window is the concept that there is an acceptable range of things that people can talk about, and anything outside that range is considered fringe. Remember people politely saying, “You know, maybe taking an experimental mRNA “Vaxx” when we have no idea what the side effects are isn’t a good idea,” were brutally silenced on every platform imaginable.

Now? Pretty much everyone knows it was a stupid idea and probably killed more people than it saved. Even mainstream science is pointing this out.

The blatant lie that “diversity is our strength” is now fully realized as a lie. If it was true, why would calling someone a “diversity hire” be considered an insult? People are realizing that our immigration is insane, and that They Have To Go Back is a real thing. If America is just an idea, they can feel free to have that idea in India. Or Guatemala. Or . . . wherever. America is more than an idea, and now people can talk through that hypocrisy.
