Great essay, Matt. For an alternative, consider how scientific discoveries continually achieve social change. Hidden to almost everyone - who knew of Tesla, Maxim, Oppenheimer, Von Braun, Turing, Shockley, Crick? And yet, our entire society today - as well as the global order - were shaped by these men in ways no one could even begin to imagine at the time.

Let us consider the final frontier of biology: DNA. What research is being currently conducted that only the smallest fragments leak out to knowledgeable people? What kind of black ops programs in the US, China and Russia are analyzing and considering a multitude of different applications? So, here's what's coming down the pike:

The first applications of genetic research and applied gene therapies will be to target cancers and other pressing medical needs to combat diseases. The second phase will be cosmetics in nature - new hair for balding men, eliminate grey for all 9 (or is it 10 now, so hard to keep up) genders, fresh, pliable skin, etc.

The 3rd stage begin to transform all societies when skin, hair & eye color can be changed, when texture & length can be selected, etc. Which standards of beauty will be demanded, which race(s) will be demanded? Ultimately, it's the 4th wave that is the real game changer: when IQ can be improved and at least brought to a base level for all peoples. What happens to a political party that panders to those cognitively unable to provide for themselves?

FR loves to be a real doom & gloom place. Consider the proglibs as similar to the imperial Japan. Lot's of initial, tactical victories, but never seeing the strategic component driven by technological advances. Emotional progs aren't capable of STEM, so they need their daily dose of drama. But the real (scientific) changes happen over decades that completely alter the playing field.

but no side is going to be some massive organized army with advanced weapons marching on some city to lay waste to it or conqueror some region.

I can easily imagine a future rat president ordering exactly that.

The Left’s ultimate plan isn’t “white “genocide, specificall, but is more directed at fomenting general mayhem leading to societal collapse in general. The use of racial divisions is just too easy to ignore.

The article clearly proves the democrats are in rebellion and clearly intend to destroy the Republic. Why are they not being treated accordingly ?

Self-defense wise conservatives will resist if they are physically threatened. As you say though unless them or their families are in harms way most will continue to get up and go to work and obey the law, go along get along.

However, the left may not allow this at some point and cells will spring up taking the fight to the government and the left which would run the government more than likely in some form. As to whether it breaks down along urban vs. rural or white vs. black or black vs. Hispanic, who knows. These cells will have to make these attacks hurt their enemies and not most of their neighbors and in the process make the government and the lefts heavy handed response hurt not just the targeted white conservatives for genocide but the rest of society to gain sympathy and support from the locals.

It would be as you say, small for the most part but there would be big events through the process and depending on the US military’s response, short or a lengthy in duration and above all a nasty affair. There would be huge sections of the country the left/government just could not physically control, there are not enough troops or law enforcement to be every place all the time.

They could move in and control an area sure, as long as they leave a substantial force in place, but as soon as they move that force to control another area, they lose control of where they just left. But the conservatives may have no choice as the left seems hellbent to force their crazed ways on the people.

“These vultures don’t give a damn about the country, just what it takes to enrich themselves. They sell their souls to the very socialists who will end up lining them up along the execution ditch.”


Not a surprise, unfortunately. These people are incredibly short-sighted, most because they suffer from an intense case of normalcy bias (and that is mainly because “normal” has worked out well for them).

I am quite sure that something similar was said at the very early stages of the Russian Revolution, when all of Russia was utterly exhausted from the massive casualties of WW1 and the resultant famines. Yet, massive armies all over Russia ended up fighting in their Civil War.

As I say to everyone that I know, I don’t have a working crystal ball, nor have I ever heard of anyone who does. You may be right, and you may be wrong...but Mr. Bracken has a pretty good handle on how the Left thinks and acts, and certain acts create other natural reactions.

Great piece, and thanks for posting. Common to the several models of genocide is the basic cycle Demonize, Disarm, Rob, Eliminate, and in the case of the current United States we're still very much at step one. South Africa is at step three, Zimbabwe at post-four.

I agree that the canary in this particular coal mine is the disarmament of the general public, an act that must precede the others lest they fail in the face of armed resistance. The increasing Democrat passion for this has paralleled that party's lurch to the left and it's no accident. Not all of them have the goal of genocide but all of them do have the goal of power, and if it takes genocide to attain or maintain that, then fine, by any means necessary. The media can always call it something else and keep it out of sight. After all, most Germans who weren't Nazis put up with the camps because they didn't have to look at them, didn't want to think about them, and at last because they didn't want to end up in them.

I think, though, that the targeted minority in this case remains too large and too heavily armed for anything of the sort to happen anytime soon. A generation from now, who knows? Two generations? Sometimes it takes the loss of freedom to rediscover that it's worth fighting for. And buried ammunition lasts a long time.

At least a lot of us have had the sense to move away from the blue hives in time. When they go up in flames, it won’t matter who you are. Just understanding the issues presented in these posts puts us miles ahead of the herd of NPC drones.

>>Also, and something not covered in your posting, is that a weakened and chaotic USA will become a target for foreign enemies like China and Russia who might invade and start slicing off desirable pieces of the disintegrating country.<<

Absolutely. During a period of anarchy and civil war in the USA, our foreign enemies will be happy to help themselves to some choice cuts. They will be invited in as "peacekeepers," but they won't leave.

This is the subject of my 3rd novel, Foreign Enemies and Traitors.
