When societies change, the first movement is seen in the cities. This has been one of the constants throughout history. Whether the change is positive or negative is beside the point, rural areas are typically the last holdout. When they do shift closer in values to the cities, that is when the change in society is complete. We can see this in the Christianization of the Roman Empire. The cities were the first parts of the Empire to become Christian. The rural parts of the Empire were far slower to Christianize. This is, after all, where the word “pagan” originates, from the Latin paganus meaning “rural” or “rustic” and was used to describe how those in the rural parts of the Empire, both the still semi-barbaric masses and the patrician elite in their country estates, held to the old gods far longer than the urban centers.
We can view this again over a thousand years later during the Protestant Reformation. Protestantism first took root in the cities. The rural peasantry stuck to Catholicism for longer. Yet again, this occurred during the Russian Revolution. The Bolshevik strongholds were Moscow and St. Petersburg, the rural areas were a bastion for tsarism, hence why the communists decided to crush the rural Ukrainians with the Holodomor. Even into the 1970s, the communists found isolated Siberian villages that were still carrying on as if the tsar never fell. Today, we see this in the United States. While all the major cities, and a good deal of the mid-sized ones, are completely captured by Globohomo, what remains of the resistance is largely alive in the countryside and small towns.
Thus, to fully change a culture, the rural areas must be captured. Or, vast swaths of the land will remain tied to the old ways, allowing it to live on. This is why Globohomo is going so hard after the rural areas. Any hope they have of destroying the old culture depends upon their success here. The Christians of the Roman Empire were able to Christianize the rural areas of the Empire, that is why “paganism” today only lives on through edgy online atheists. The Bolsheviks were never able to similarly transform rural Russia, and today they are gone from Russia (but not in the United States). One can see this strategy most clearly played out on the transgender issue. There’s plenty of this nonsense going on in New York and San Francisco, but if the news stories about this are reviewed even more clearly, a trend emerges showing a tendency to focus on these stories, especially about children, in Middle America – especially Dixie and the Midwest.
No doubt a lot of this is psychological warfare, trying to convince rural people that the fight is over and they lost, but those stories are still reporting something that actually happened. What’s more, though there has been plenty of resistance to “drag queen story hour,” there have also been cases of these events happening in fairly small towns and being met largely with indifference. Just ten years ago, the sight of drag queens reading to small children in a public library would have been unthinkable even in San Francisco. Today, it has come to small towns in Dixie.
Throughout Dixie, formerly rock ribbed conservative small towns are being invaded. Growing up in the heart of the Bible Belt and in a fairly small town, one known for its conservatism and unwillingness to tolerate degeneracy, I never thought I would witness a gay pride parade downtown. I also never thought I would see a boy scout with green hair and female “boy scout,” but this is the nature of modernity. And, a lot of this is being driven by the urbanites. As the cities become increasingly unaffordable, more and more urbanites are moving farther out and bringing their ideology with them. It is an all-out invasion that is allowing Globohomo to conquer the countryside, and as soon as that is complete, Heritage America is dead.
Throughout history, one trend has remained constant. The cities have been the engines that drive societal change, while the rural areas have been the breaks. This change may be good (the Christianization of the Roman Empire) or it may be evil (the Bolsheviks and today’s decadence) but this trend remains the same. If societal change fails to destroy the old order, it is almost certainly because of rural opposition. Our enemies know this, and that is why they rant against any and all institutional protections that give more power to rural voters. Some of this takes the form of attempts to change those institutions – for example, moves to abolish the electoral college, abolishing the Senate, or adding DC as a state. That’s just the big stuff that grabs headlines. The real battle is on the smaller scale – the increased urban migration to conservative rural areas, and the attempts to bring their degeneracy to those rural areas that inevitably follow. If the cultural change of the rural areas goes through, then there will be no need to abolish the electoral college, abolish the Senate, or make DC a state. They still may do these things for good measure, but there will be no need to do so. They’ll be able to do whatever they want anyway.
The Bolsheviks were never able to fully transform the countryside because they were never able to break the average Russian peasant. There is a story of the early days of the Soviet Union. A commissar comes into a small village and requires all the people gather while he gives a lecture on the non-existence of God. After going on for hours, he turns to the priest and says, “You have five minutes for your rebuttal.” The priest tells the commissar that he does not need five minutes. He turns to his flock and shouts “Christ is Risen!” to which the crowd responds in unison, “Yes, truly He is Risen!”
If Globohomo is ever to be driven from our land, it will be through that same Christian defiance.
