Back during the 1960s, the normie Left, think run-of-the-mill liberals that admired Martin Luther King but thought Malcolm X was too scary and praised William F. Buckley for making the Right “respectable,” were frequently mocked by both the authentic Right and the communists for their hypocrisy in supporting leftwing causes as long as it didn’t impact them personally. It’s the drive that led Yankee liberals to vote for Johnson in 1964 because he supported ending Jim Crow in Dixie, but also voted for Nixon in 1972 because McGovern wanted to extend that to the North and bus their own children.
It was a mentality hardly restricted to the North, hence why George Wallace would frequently attack the residents of Mountain Brook, Alabama (a wealthy suburb of Birmingham) for pushing to end segregation, while also moving to expensive all-white neighborhoods with an all-white school district. And, if the later wasn’t possible, send their children to an all-white private school. These were things that were economically out of reach for the vast majority of black people and, as far as Wallace was concerned, his own working-class and rural base. The Far Left would share a similar sentiment. For example, Phil Ochs’ “Love Me, I’m a Liberal” is 1960s folk song that attacked liberal hypocrisy with lines like, “I love Puerto Ricans and Negros/As long as they don’t move next door” and “Ah, the people of old Mississippi/Should all hang their heads in shame/Now, I can’t understand how their minds work/What’s the matter don’t they watch Les Crane?/But if you ask me to bus my children/I hope the cops take down your name.”
This entire attitude is, on its face, terrible hypocrisy and a big reason as to why we’re in our current state of affairs. When someone’s child is always “someone else’s child,” it breaks any sense of community beyond class and ensures that the working (and sometimes middle) class is made to bear the brunt of our modern social experiments. Meanwhile, the wealthy can shield themselves from any real consequences. It’s the same reason for the wealthy advocating for greater immigration. For them, increased migration means a new restaurant to check out and cheap landscaping. For the working-class, it means decreased wages due to greater competition, along with foreign neighborhoods.
For all the problems this egotistical attitude has, it appears quaint compared to the woke progressivism of our new era. In the 1960s, the unwillingness to sacrifice one’s own children at the alter of liberalism meant that there were effective controls as to how far “progress” could go before a bunch of individual actions, albeit acting selfishly, added up. Today, no such controls exists. Unlike his (or, more often her) counterpart in 1965, the 2021 liberal is willing to sacrifice their own children completely. Remember, George McGovern’s support for bussing was considered far too extreme for the nation’s liberals, and they voted for Nixon. Now, you will frequently observe liberals line their sons up to have devastating surgery that will cause far more damage, and longer lasting physical consequences, than bussing or integrated schools.
What is even more disturbing is how it is almost always the mother driving this sacrifice. The father, if he’s even around at all, is either henpecked or so engrossed in the NFL (or some other playtime) he pays no mind to losing his son – so long as his team (or fantasy team) does well. One would think that a maternal, or paternal, instinct to protect would kick in, but nope, they are willing to create long lasting problems for their children, including losing the ability to even have children. But, even beyond that, a scroll through Twitter will find white liberals hoping that their children have fewer opportunities in their lives because they are white.
There was even one case of a mother planning to name her son “Adolph” in hopes that he’ll be picked on and a future boss may pass over him to hire a non-white person. This is beyond sane and reveals a complete regression to pagan human sacrifice. In anti-abortion circles, it is common to portray abortion as a modern day worship of Baal, in terms of the child sacrifice that went along with it. Indeed, in those dark days parents would gladly kill their children in the name of Baal. It was considered a cultural honor. As it turns out, not only has that mentality been revived, it extends to after-birth, too.
There have always been people who have been willing to sacrifice their own children for an ideology. As unpopular as bussing was, there were still people who supported it. One even became the nominee for president of a major political party. That candidate also lost 49 states in a national election. Outside certain circles, bussing was deeply unpopular. However, the drive to sacrifice one’s own children has expanded beyond the confines of what it was in the 1960s, and has grown even more radical and perverse. If bussing was enough to cost George McGovern 49 states and even Cook County, Illinois in 1972, what do you think running on transgendered children would have done? Today, you can run on that and still become president. Yes, I know all about the fraud shenanigans. Even if none of that was done, the election still would have been very close.
The realization of just how radical and devoted to their ideology the Left has become should give the Right pause – because it showcases just how stark the divide is now. For all the problems the Left had in the 1960s and 1970s, at least “Do you really want your child doing X?” could serve as a break on their behavior. That is no longer the case. As soon as the sacrifice of one’s own children becomes acceptable, there are no limits to what will come next, the last barrier is down. What we are seeing now is liberalism completely unleased from concerns regarding the safety and future of children, a line that was not even crossed in the 1960s. It is a new reality that the Right must prepare for.

O I’m a good old rebel, now that’s just what I am. For this “fair land of freedom” I do not care at all. I’m glad I fit against it, I only wish we’d won, And I don’t want no pardon for anything I done.
Great article, I’m glad to see someone touching on the topic of bussing. The sad part is that because we don’t keep track of our own people, which is our number one problem right now, or the catastrophic effects these policies had on us, then those same arguments can be reframed and used against us time and time again by those very same people, and they were. Even the term “bussing” is terrible, the term should focus on the cultural genocide at the heart of it and lay blame to the people responsible for it. Bussing sounds almost polite, like the Civil War, as if the armies met up and had tea.
Our side has zero control of terminology and it seems we always eagerly use the terms our enemies provide for us. Its a fatal flaw and one we must quickly remedie.
One example is just yesterday the founder of GAB, Andrew Torba, the free speech version Faceberg, and who has supported keeping our monuments in place in the past, made a post about how its time for the country to skip the “Civil War” and get right into “Reconstruction”. Yes, he really said that.
Its because ” Reconstruction ” was a term developed to make that nightmare seem like a good thing, a niceness they were doing us, and it worked. He almost certainly doesn’t know the true history of the invasion of our home or the atrocities of “Reconstruction” but he uses those terms instead of ones that we developed to signify the monstrous nature of it, because we never developed real terms, we just use theirs, like bussing. Through the use of terminology alone he was convinced that Reconstruction was a good thing and we should be doing it right now to save America. Terminology is that powerful.
Terminology and framing are the two most important things that us the ragged last of unreconstructed Southern readers and writers can start to devote some of our time to. Instead of “Reconstruction” we should have a term reminiscent of the Holodomor. Can you imagine him saying “lets skip the murderous invasion of the South and get right into the nightmare of the Holodomor”. No he would not have said it, terminology, language is what shapes people and their perceptions. Our failure to develop our own terms and use them exclusively while at the same time always calling out anyone who uses the Yankee terms as ignorant and heartless has lead to countless harm. The worst part is, its free to fix, it costs nothing for us to rectify this monumental mistake, yet we never have.
The endless hours of my childhood wasted on a bus, only to arrive at a hellhole in order to have my identity and my peoples culture stripped from me and replaced with cancerous poison designed to kill my culture and make me weak so as to be more easily enslaved at the hands of an evil people and their illegitimate, evil tyrannical government, during an ongoing military occupation of our home, a heartless activist Federal Judge instead of school board, union hate mongers instead of loving Southern teachers, all hell bent on the destruction of innocent children and their genocide, should not be called “bussing”.
It is our duty, the readers and writers we have left that are not reconstructed, to develop a Southern lexicon of terminology to encapsulate the truth of the narrative, the evil of the invasion and the hatred of our oppressors. Its up to us, and it doest cost a dime, so lets get to it.
“-more easily enslaved at the hands of an evil people and their illegitimate, evil tyrannical government,”
The Northern People are themselves illegitimate, not just their government. They are usurpers, who have taken the country and the government away from those who are it’s original founders and settlers. They also passively countenance evil. As long as it’s inflicted on their “fellow Americans” in the South, and in Wyoming, who “deserve it,” and not on them. Or as long as their special rights, privileges and authority, in the so-called Union, aren’t touched.
Southern conservatives, apart from Southern Nationalists, who think that these people will rise up with us, to “take back America,” or will help us to make things better, are in for a really long wait.
Encapsulate that concept into a term for practice. Maybe even break it up into two terms, such as what I call Yankees, “boat trash Americans”, it shows they are not Americans, just trash Lincoln yanked off of a boat, is just enough insulting to show our contempt and underlines the fact we are two different peoples. Now, of course we don’t say that in a textbook 😂 But certainly we need terms that do exactly what I just did.
Terminology is meant to encapsulate large concepts and feelings into a single term that conveys the concept as a whole. Yankees use it to mislead, we use it for the truth.
Yankees wanted to make themselves a monarchy to rule over the rest of the country from their frozen shithole. We need a term for what they are doing, one that we can walk up to any American when we see an instance of it and use to encapsulate that entire idea in one term, “the Yankee king delusion” or something like that, where it will first of all show our disdain for their mindset, name them as a separate people and expose their intentions, all in one term. Its very powerful and we must begin to develop terminology and stop using theirs. Even when we do, its not good because Southerners tend not to think like that, skallywag for instance is a horrible term for a textbook, maybe good for us in conversation, but it does not nearly encapsulate the disgust that wells up in me for those traitors, we can do better, we must do better. Practice, get good at it, you have been watching the left do it for years, we can do better.
“Yankees wanted to make themselves a monarchy to rule over the rest of the country from their frozen shithole. We need a term for what they are doing,-”
I would say dictatorship, rather than monarchy. I call them usurpers, which is what they are. I call what they do, usurpation. Which is what it is.
Even Southern statesmen in the 19th Century called them that.
Texas Ordinance of Secession.
“-by the disloyalty of the Northern States and their citizens and the imbecility of the Federal Government, infamous combinations of incendiaries and outlaws have been permitted in those States and the common territory of Kansas to trample upon the federal laws, to war upon the lives and property of Southern citizens in that territory, and finally, by violence and mob law, to {usurp} the possession of the same as exclusively the property of the Northern States.”
Usurpers. Exactly what they are. Their pseudo-election of Biden is just the latest in a long line of usurpations stretching back to before 1776.
“the Yankee king delusion”
I simply call it Northern Supremacy. I called an infamous Neo-Yankee troll a Northern Supremacist several times. Predictably, it went right over his head.
Northerners labour under the inculcated and now ancient delusion that the Sixteen Northern States and sometimes, their Pacific coast colonies, are the United States, period. They also have an overwhelming sense of entitlement to special rights and privileges, and to ruling authority over other Americans (because of the Great Patriotic War of 1856-65). Whom they regard as mere subordinate subjects, or as little better than animals. But certainly not as “fellow Americans,” with all of the same legal and political rights as they themselves.
Every argument that they make, every political statement, every declaration, is rooted in the overwhelming assumption of Northern Supremacy. And in the assumption that the Sixteen Northern States, the Northern People themselves, the federal government, and the “United States of America,” are all one and the same, and interchangeable in terms.
That’s why they can easily talk about the South, or the Interior West, as if those were overseas colonies, to be civilised and developed, rather than as fellow, distinct regions of the same country. It’s also why when they say “we” and “us,” they mean them, and not the rest of “us.”
This would all be ridiculous, but for the fact that these people control the federal government, and use it as a tool of conquest against their “fellow Americans” outside of the North proper.
The assumption of Northern Supremacy in all things sociopolitical and economic, and the ideas, beliefs and expectations that swirl around it, are what Southern Nationalists haf to break. Especially in and among the Southern People.
Once it’s understood that the Northern People and their sixteen states aren’t above the Constitution, laws, or other Americans, as is commonly assumed. Nor that the other states need either their permission, or their approval, to do anything that lawful, sovereign states may do; We can proceed with taking back our country, not theirs.
Scribble, scribble.
Well spake, As a survivor from LBJ’s 60s, I can confirm everything you say here, and as Dr Gregory House always, the answer to every problem begins with a unified theory. Knowing “how things work”, whether a 6-cylinder Chevy engine or a generation of spoiled brats w/o a single moral platform in the it lives, is a sine qua non to finding a way to fix it.
That can’t happen with words on a “piece of paper”. It requires from 5 (a posse) to a 100 (a battalion, to come together to work out an action plan.
“Up off the arses” as they say in Scotland.

Think the Republican Party will fight to protect you from the political leftists? Think again. Please check out comments on https://revisedhistory.wordpress.com to find out where the Republican Party is really at.
Ok, good, it seems you grasped the fundamentals, but we have to do better yet. You forgot that the term must show derision, as well as be descriptive. For example the leftist term “homophobic” it shows that not only is the person against homosexuality (descriptive) he is against it because he fears them (derision).
If not, they will begin to wear your insults as badges of honor, such as when Trump supporters began to refer to themselves as “deplorables” after being smeared with it as an insult. The derisive element must not have the ability to be turned into a cool moniker, or that is exactly what they will do. It has to be something that nobody would call themselves, like calling these invaders and thevies “carpetbaggers” is not good enough. We need a term that implies maliciously moving here, murdering people and stealing, like vermin or parasites. A Yankee migrating cockroaches, or something. Something they won’t proudly call themselves, no cool factor.
We need a lot of work along these lines, civil rights movement, Jim crow etc. We always just use their terms, so we have a very large backlog, we need Southern terms from the Southern perspective. Just something we should all have in the back of our minds as we read things, ask yourself what term should I use here instead of just using the one they provided?
