Don't Fall for the Anti-European Psyop

White Americans share a common struggle with their European counterparts against globalism.

Dec 12, 2024

A rootless people are one asking to be conquered by nefarious forces.

Even those who reside in a polity that views it as “exceptional” would be wise to never forget their roots. The story of American conservatism over the last century has been one of embracing creedal nationalism, wherein conservative adherents believe America “is an idea” — a proposition nation of sorts that is “exceptional” among nations due to its commitment to free enterprise, the rule of law, and limited government.

The essence of this can be found in the section of the Declaration of Independence where it spells out “all men are created equal.” For the exponents of the American universalist project, the Union’s triumph over the Confederacy during the Civil War, the U.S.’s victories in the two world wars in the 20th century, and its social engineering projects spanning the New Deal to the Great Society are viewed as ventures to advance the country’s founding principle of equality.

Once the U.S. reached its unipolar moment in the 1990s, American punditry embraced an imperial smugness that would make ancient emperors blush. They viewed the rest of the world, especially the ethnostates of the globe (save Israel of course), as primitive backwaters driven by parochial nationalism and outdated cultural practices.

Such a chauvinistic outlook has permeated down to pundits across the political spectrum. Conservative social media influencer Mike Cernovich’s recent comments about European countries served as a reminder of how deeply ingrained the American exceptionalism fixation is among Americans. In a post on X published on November 24, 2024, Cernovich stated:

Europoor as a meme arose after centuries of unearned snobbery from Europeans. America has better geography, a higher standard of living, and yes better food. Not to mention the total lack of innovation in Europe. They are primitive people.

There’s a growing trend of American political pundits who think they’re slick for attacking Europeans because of their perceived lower standard of living vis-a-vis the U.S. Richard Hanania, a political scientist of “enlightened centrist” orientation, routinely boasts about the U.S.’s economic superiority compared to the Old Continent. In one post on X, Hanania observed, “People in the UK and France are about as wealthy as the United States was in 1990. “

If per capita GDP were the primary metric to determine a country’s quality of life, Hanania would have a point. In fairness to Hanania, The U.S. is a markedly more dynamic country in terms of its economic activity. This can largely be attributed to the U.S.’s smaller regulatory state and stronger culture of entrepreneurship that encourages business formation.

While the U.S.’s economic prowess is a sight to behold and should serve as an example for other nations to follow, a country’s health is not exclusively measured by how many massive corporations operate within its borders or the diversity of its cuisine. Instead, countries’ health should be measured by their social cohesiveness and their respective state’s ability to carry out the will of its founding stock and preserve its national character.

For the American mind that has been fried due to economic reductionist thinking and to mass consumerism, such nationalist considerations don’t even register. This is one of the challenges of forging a proper, nationalist movement in the U.S. The cold, hard truth is the U.S. is a global consumer imperium compared to its ethnostate allies in NATO such as Estonia Hungary, Latvia, Lithuania, and Poland. These countries are historic nations that have stayed relatively homogeneous over the span of centuries and have had to fight for their identities as distinct ethnic groups against larger external actors such as the Russian Empire and Soviet Union.

On the other hand, the U.S. is a racially diverse polity with over 300 million people and an ever-expanding immigrant population. It’s simply too multi-racial and culturally fragmented to fall under a traditional nationalist framework. As authors such as Paul Gottfried have posited, coherent nation-states are generally based “on ethnic membership, shared religious traditions, and histories going back millennia.” In the U.S.’s case, it is based on universal founding principles such as equality and individual liberties, essentially abstractions. A credible nationalist movement will be exceedingly difficult to forge in a country with a heterogeneous population only bound by abstractions and vapid consumer habits.

In the U.S., whites take for granted the European foundations of their country. The U.S. is the progeny of a Northern European, Anglo-Saxon protoculture. Even in its mongrelized state, thanks to multiple decades of non-white migration, the U.S retains vestiges of the aforementioned culture as seen in its robust tradition of property rights, rule of law, and commercial acumen. These features of the American experience did not just sprout from the ground. They’re the product of northern European settlers and subsequent waves of European migrants who labored assiduously to build a pan-European superstate on the North American continent.

Truth be told, white Americans have never encountered the existential struggles typical of continental European politics of the last 500 years. The U.S. has been blessed with having two moats in the Atlantic and the Pacific Oceans and the country achieving regional hegemonic status — two key factors shielding it from conventional invasions from geopolitical rivals.

However, the U.S.’s mass migration experiment is changing the U.S.’s demographic calculus. Hostile ruling elites have effectively facilitated an invasion of the U.S by denizens of the Global South. According to projections from the U.S. Census Bureau, if current migration trends hold, the U.S.’s white, non-Hispanic population will drop to 45% by 2060. At that point, Americans will not only be strangers in the land their ancestors built, but they will also be reduced to second class status as striver class minorities use state and corporate levers of power to dispossess them. It’s no stretch to say it will likely take whites becoming a minority in their own country along with a wholesale decline in their standard of living for them to gain a racial consciousness.

Pace the conservative public policy think tank complex, the challenges of the 21st century will not be ones of mundane political debates concerning economic or education policy. The debates of this epoch will be focused on the national question — whether the U.S. will remain a coherent, white European polity.

Proposition nations simply don’t have the civilizational antibodies to deal with the political disease of multiculturalism and anti-white hate. American conservatives would be wise to think beyond the narrow strictures of mainstream political discourse. Years of indoctrination in the education system and social conditioning in legacy-media approved debates have programmed millions of politically aware Americans to believe the U.S. is merely a shopping mall with nukes.

In the era of mass migration and political correctness, the U.S., the broader Anglosphere, and Western Europe share a common struggle against globalist forces who strive to demographically displace and racially erase them. Under such a political order, whites will have little staying power as their interests are ignored and their homelands transformed into Towers of Babel unrecognizable to their forefathers.

Now is definitely not the time for whites to be engaging in pissing matches about what predominantly European country has the greatest variety of consumer widgets. When we divide ourselves over petty differences, the forces of globalism will inevitably come out on top. Only a united front can defeat the globalist forces hell-bent on destroying the historic nations of Europe and its settler outposts across the globe.
