No Peace In Mind
The tendency is to equate our current political situation as the first steps in a civil war. We have a divided population, nothing has been made more clear over the past decade. We have elected a popular president that the opposition hates. This goes beyond political divisions. Trump is as much a threat to the identity of the globalists in America as Lincoln was to the South. But, the political situation is more akin to the American Revolution than the Civil War. To cast it appropriately, the globalists are the British and the nationalists are the rebels.
Like the start of the Revolution, the people had long been ignored and taxed heavily to support the overseas power, feeding a Britain fighting foreign wars for the benefit of trade and power. Washington DC is that "overseas" power; an entity that is as distant from the people as Britain was from the Colonies. The people are ruled by elitists and a class structure that no common man might penetrate. The grievances of the people have gone unheeded and even ridiculed.
The globalists, by definition, are not American. They might have citizenship in the United States, but they do not honor the Constitution, nor the rights of their fellow citizens, nor our republican institutions. They do not recognize the borders of the nation, or respect free speech. They demean the idea of patriotism and find nothing valuable in the title "American." They are the equivalent of a child born to British loyalists.
The nationalists respect the Constitution, individual rights and value republican ideals. They recognize and demand the borders of the nation to be secure. They suffer all manner of insults, because they respect freedom of speech. They hold patriotism in esteem and proudly call themselves Americans. They are the equivalent of being a rebel against a distant monarchial power.
The act of rebellion was the election of Donald Trump. It was no less a declaration of independence than the actual thing. So, now the forces of the King, or Kings in this case, have engaged in damaging and defamatory allegations against the declaration, refusing to give it weight or authority. They scoff at the election as King George scoffed at the Declaration of Independence, feeling that he had the power to bring the insurrection under control.
