The accusation that I am Black-pilled—that there is no answer to the political problems we’re facing—is constantly hurled at me by people whose only strategy is to tell total strangers to read books written by authors most people haven’t heard of. Granted, I will often recommend that you read books I talk about, but those books are intended for your edification. I acknowledge the books I recommend will not be very helpful in devising a grand strategy, although there have been a select few.
But the question as to whether or not I’m Black-pilled is a fair one to ask. If you are someone who believes that a culture based on Christian norms is essential for order and decency, it’s very easy to fall into black-pilled thinking and speech in the “current year.” We have been and continue to be trained to judge the health and wellbeing of our culture through the lens of national politics. This includes the Regime-media, academia, and even big tech and social media. But concentrating only on the national situation is a trap.
If you wondered if I am going to invoke local culture and politics, you’ve probably been following my work for a while. I have situated myself in a part of the country where you will see freaks among the population, but they know that if they start reaching for power to legitimize their insanity, they will be met with severe pushback. Many people are at the ready and watching out for the infiltrators in their midst. In my opinion, this can only be done on a small scale.
But small towns and good people who don't want their culture polluted by degenerates aren't my only hope. Because of the comments here on Substack, in the emails I receive, and through people contacting me on social media, I know that we have people on fire to win the war “elites” have waged on decency and normalcy. If you’re reading this and are instinctively asking yourself what I mean by decency and normalcy, your mind may have been turned inside out by the insanity we are subjected to almost constantly. Or, you’re an enemy of the good people reading this, and as such, I want you to understand that you are going to lose. It’s inevitable. We will not stop until we win.
The main thrust of my message is that the reason I am not black-pilled is because of you, the good people who are fighting side by side with me. How can I give up hope when you are by my side? To the contrary, it confirms my belief that our victory over chaos and insanity is inevitable. We will win because we clearly see the depravity and instinctively want to defeat it. And we are working hard to defeat it. We will win. Don’t let anyone tell you we won't.
We understand what we're up against. The enemy has no idea who we are or why they hate us. They hate caricatures, slack-jawed stereotypes and strawmen. They have no idea what they are really up against.
An ideology that is 10 miles wide and half an inch deep, while controlling the levers of power now, can not and will not last. Some suggest that this decline can go on for 100 years. You can have competent leadership that is deeply corrupt, or, you can have incompetent leadership that is sincere and has integrity. What we have, and the West in general, is incompetence and corruption, which means that infrastructure and basic life functions break down as they are actively stealing from and destroying their own people. That can not last. The City State complexes and Feudal System, for all of their faults, arose out of the deterioration and decline of Rome. They were there to restore order in a lawless and corrupt empire. I would like to see something like that emerge, with normal people populating those areas and flourishing in the coming post-liberal West (to paraphrase Charles Haywood).
