Unite the Right

Political Naturalist?

Nah, it should make the average Bolshevist jealous.

Romantic Nationalist isn't the right phrase. Doesn't have the proper aesthetic.

Well, something along those lines, because in a propaganda war, I wouldn't serve junk up over the plate to get knocked out of the park, you gotta hit em' with the slider, the curve, the change up, the knuckle ball, you can't just keep throwing the same pitch through the wheelhouse.

Americans are inherently national romanticists, Americans are totally enthralled by a romanticized America, which is how Robert E. Lee and the Lost Cause have survived, but in the contemporary paradigm, as soon as you use the words "White" or "Right", you just hit the hot button and everybody stopped listening the second you did, so whatever they call it, they need to ditch the White and Right from the branding, to slip it by the censors, particularly if those censors are AI's

There are now four protesters arrested for the destruction of a roughly century-old statue of a Confederate soldier in North Carolina. The bold act of property destruction was carried out in front of news cameras in broad daylight. ... The arrested include Takiyah Thompson, 22, Dante Strobino, 35, Ngoc Loan Tran, 24, and Peter Gilbert, 39.

These individuals were clearly unwilling to join the debate over the removal of confederacy images or figures. Instead, they destroyed not just a piece of history but a piece of art that, if the community decided in favor of removal, could have been placed in a museum or alternative setting.

Thompson climbed the ladder to help pull down the statue, which was dedicated in 1924. She is a student at black North Carolina Central University. The three men are affiliated with the Workers World Party, which helped organize the Durham protest in response to the protests in Charlottesville, Virginia.

Notably, police spotted Tran at the court hearing for Thompson when a deputy asked him to help identify two people . Tran refused and he was arrested.

Tran later tried to excuse his destruction of the statue as warranted due to the racist society in which he lives: “Monday night hundreds of people gathered in front of the statue, and it was the will of everyone there that that statue come down knowing that in the state of North Carolina there is no legal route for removing Confederate statues.” Of course, there is a legal route through the legislature. What Tran and his colleagues were not willing to do is to leave it to the legislative process and the collective judgment of the citizenry. Instead, they simply imposed their will on the majority and destroyed a historical art piece.

See no side is ever gonna win, because nobody can keep their spurs from jingling and jangling long enough to be sneaky.

Like, tell you right now, no one person has done more for the Lost Cause in recent times than Ken Burns on PBS, I mean, the Civil War by Ken Burns, that is just dripping with the Lost Cause, he pratically turns Thomas J. Jackson into Batman and Robert E. Lee into Captain America, but it was PBS, so nobody freaked out.

It's all about the branding. Want to hear what the Lost Cause sounds like? Sounds like this...
