Is The Divide Becoming Irreparable?
Sparta Report ^ | 8/5/2020 | Eugene Quintus Whipplewart

Posted on 08/06/2020 5:48:18 AM PDT by Sir Napsalot

This Time, The House Divided May NEVER Reunify!

AMERICANS HAVE NEVER BEEN THIS IDEOLOGICALLY NOR POLITICALLY DIVIDED ... IS THE DIVISION TOO DEEP? HAVE WE REACHED A POINT OF NO RETURN IN AMERICAN SOCIETY?

Are we now in a time of such division and separation from each other in American Society that there’s no chance of unity, for reconciliation, nor coming together to find the simplest and most basic of common ground? Are the differences between Republican and Democrat, Liberal and Conservative, Leftist and Traditionalist, Patriot and Globalist too deep for any possible reconciliation?

(snip)

The survey of 1,001 likely voters found that only 38 percent of white Americans back secession (a number equal to last year), even as 47 percent of black Americans support secession, a climb from 43 percent in 2017.” [source, Zogby poll]

If Trump loses the attempts to oppress conservatives and subvert the Constitution will be met with serious "resistance".

Zero chance of it happening. Conservatives are reasonable people who will not provide any resistance beyond their front door.

They have always hated us - but we responded with indifference. Recent events have affected our response.

... OR New England should be ONE state with two senators instead of 12 ( or 14 if you count NY ).

Answer: Yes. Unfortunately.

Based on what I have been reading and seeing over the last 6 months (and before that, really) and family members, the breach is irreparable.

Only God can heal that. It may be that God has decided to let us continue in our tribalism...

You cannot peacefully live with hysterical people who exist in a delusional world of Marxist militancy.

America is already finished. Now comes the civil war. Either patriots upholding the constitution win or the Leftist zombies win. There is no “blend” of the two. The Leftists want to completely destroy what America was founded to be.

You have Oprah Winfrey, a black woman, worth $2.5 billion, mostly from the support of white women, saying blacks have no chance in America. The “systemically racist” USA twice elected a (half) black man as President.

Have you ever tried to live peacefully with a violent, crazy person?

The eruption on the left will be far more violent than the protests which occurred in the wake of Trump's first election. Expect terrorist attacks which might descend into guerrilla actions

Sorry, you are wrong. You are not being cynical enough. The mayors and governors are ALLOWING this unrest to continue only for purely political reasons; to hurt Trump. After the election, no matter the outcome, there will be a "cleanup in aisle 9". The MSM and the Democrats ( I repeat myself ) will accept the outcome because even if the Orange Bad Man wins in 4 years they think they got this.

The MSM and the Democratic mayors/guvs will clean up this mess up because they really don't want this destruction ether. Same with COVID. The hoax is over in November.

But what if there is no “America” to move to?

So if New England becomes an independent country, what’s to stop other states or regions from seceding too, and creating more countries?

Could we see the states of the United States eventually all becoming independent countries? Could the United States dissolve into multiple nations, as did the old Soviet Union?

I pray for this. I hope so. We could be so lucky.

“Are the differences between Republican and Democrat, Liberal and Conservative, Leftist and Traditionalist, Patriot and Globalist too deep for any possible reconciliation?”

Why did he leave out “blacks and whites” which is at the core of most of our divide?

Especially since later in the article he mentions that blacks are most in favor of secession! I think that is good news and whites should take them up on it.

There needs to be three countries. Blacks only, whites only and a mixed race country for the masochists who want to keep enjoying the “vibrancy” of diversity like we currently have. That way everyone is happy and in control of their destinies.

It would be great if there was also a way to separate the left from the right, but that’s a harder one to pull off because there is no physical marker that identifies a leftist from a rightist. People are not statically one or the other.

Matthew 18:8-9

If your hand or your foot causes you to sin, cut it off and throw it away. It is better for you to enter life maimed or crippled than to have two hands or two feet and be thrown into eternal fire. And if your eye causes you to sin, gouge it out and throw it away. It is better for you to enter life with one eye than to have two eyes and be thrown into the fire of hell.

The Secessionist prayer:

If a state or states causes socialism, cut it off and throw it away. It is better for a Free Republic to go on maimed or crippled than to have all its states and together be thrown into the eternal fire of collectivism. And if the Federal Government causes you to sin; secede from it, peacefully hopefully but secede just the same.. It is better to govern as a sovereign state, smaller and diminished in power than to be thrown into the fire of centralized Federal usurpation

I hope you’re right. But I can’t say I see many signs of that. There’s hardly been any pushback against Antifa and blm.

They have gotten so brazen and we have become so pathetically docile that Oprah has the gall to ask whites on her show to confess their racism and the guilt ridden useful idiot whites obediently comply!!

Have you seen any backlash to that? Any hoarders of angry whites burning down Oprah’s studio or house or her losing her job?

I’ve said for some time that while the Republicans are far from always being right, Democrats are always wrong, on every issue, every time.

Yes, I have nothing in common with communists that are nothing more than avowed enemies of the constitution.

We are way past the point of no return. You can be arrested for saying “he” about someone who wants you to use “she.”

You lose your job for saying “All lives matter.” You are jailed for chalking on the sidewalk “Abortion is murder.”

There are 53 “genders.” Politicians assist neo-marxists in destroying cities and in looting, burning, raping and killing.

There is no going back to what the USA was 60 years ago.

I have been saying for 35 years that the nation was in a civil war, but the shooting had not started. Well, it had now. We need to peacefully sunder the nation to avoid a violent civil war. Well, it looks like we will have one.

Decades ago, I read an article about online news sources. The author talked about how people would gravitate to sources that agreed with their ideology. The result would be two or more camps of people whose view of reality would entirely different from each other. He was right.

Different camps of people with totally different views is nothing new.

But plenty of people commented on you can not find common ground with one camp who don’t want to co-exist only to completely dominate over you.

The Left want total submission from the Right.

They don’t want to ‘eliminate’ the right ===> who else are going to supply the hard labor in gulags for their elitist’s lifestyle?
