The subject of civil war comes up a lot lately. How about an amicable separation instead? People do this all the time in their personal relationships. You have two people who loved one another once and maybe still do but just can’t live together any longer. At least, not without some sort of accommodation that neither can agree to.
And so the parties agree to separate.
One party does not (usually) try to force the other party to remain in the relationship and rarely tries to kill the other party when a separation is asked for. Most people understand that while it hurts to say goodbye, it’s wrong to hurt the other party for saying it.
Why can’t this work on a political level?
The answer is simple.
I was reading yesterday about how conflict is a necessary part of the saeculum cycle and how without it, we wouldn’t advance in modernity. Think about how different the nation was before and after each major conflict (4th turning). It is by its very nature transformative and the destruction is a necessary part of this process.
The Soviet Union fell apart in a different cycle, at the start of a third turning, an unravelling, which is why it went differently.
He’s not wrong…. it IS very much like an abusive spouse unwilling to divorce, under threat of death and violence.
Surrender, arbitrate, fight or perish.
Hmmm, it appears that some people think we are really screwed.
We passed the Czech peaceful divorce a few off ramps back. We are pedal to the metal full speed ahead towards Yugoslavia or Rwanda. A shame New England didn’t leave back in the early 1800s. Would have solved many of our problems.
As would not having imported any products from Africa.
Biggest mistake in human history was allowing Africans to leave Africa.
How Can We Amicably Separate?
By an orderly & systematic process of Balkanization.
Follow the money. My tribe and I spent 12 years living in The Peoples’ Democratic Socialist Republic of Oregon. Politics was controlled by the Socialist-Abortion LGBTQ+ party along the I-5 corridor from Eugene to Portlandia. Conservative, normal Eastern Oregon had no say in things which is why they wanted Idaho to annex them. The red-diaper-doper-babies in Salem were adamantly against it.
The reason is quite simple: Follow the money. In order to keep that socialist septic tank of a state afloat and the keep all of the government remoras, drones, and Mall Zombies happy, they need to squeeze the rest of us for state income taxes. That was one of the reasons when the time came, my native Idahoan wife, daughter, and I folded our tents and packed up for Kootenai County.
There will be no amicable divorce. And there are way too many craven, squeamish American sheeple who would not support a Balkanization movement. The magic eight ball cannot really make an accurate prediction at this time, until things go full Weimar, or the Golden Golem and his handlers drag us into WWIII. Stay tuned. Bleib ubrig.
Blue hair, blue helmets, same same not an inch
Just have to forgive them harder when they murder our loved ones.
Who is our enemy? These are foolish conversations.
Thanks but if you don’t know who they are by now you never will!
The recent current events are meant to divide, same old story. Who is fomenting division and for what purpose?
Have you not read history, read current events?
Oh, you’re either ignorant young or a drone.
Many of ya’ll are pawns in the grand scheme of things. Step back for a moment and realize we do not war against flesh and blood, but against the powers and principalities from above. There is nothing new under the sun.
Just one more thought, who is sowing fear and division?
Below is a teaser on the beginning, then you can look into the unholy City State trinity…The City of London for the financial control, DC for the military muscle, the Vatican for the religious tentacle.

Its a complex web…but those are the 3 main spiders.
In the 1599 Geneva Bible (Ephesians 6:12) you find the big picture with God’s explanation and His warning.
Check out the 1599 Geneva Bible for that verse (Ephesians 6:12) the 1611 King Jimmie version left out a major warning from God – “Wordily Governors”. (And all the study notes…hmmm…)
There can be no “amicable separation”. The left isn’t interested in compromise….of ANY type. Their goal is to rule…. EVERYONE and EVERYTHING.
It is not difficult to interpret kindness as weakness when the kind do indeed promote weakness.
I’ll again ask my same questions which in 15 yrs or more remain unanswered.
By separating, how is this not being made smaller?
Being made smaller, how is this becoming stronger?
How would separation passify those who won’t leave you alone?
If unable now, how does separation promote ability to resist attack?
What is the longevity of separation? (What comes next?)
Is not separation a step towards elimination?
Is not separation itself a manifestation of ‘divide and conquer’?
The South did attempt an amicable separation. The South wasn’t left alone.
But this time, you’ll see, it’ll all just work out What, did the South do it wrong?
According to a corollary to the Fourth Turning, America alternates between external and internal threats each Fourth Turning. If true we are due for an internal threat and the battle will be on home turf. Arm up, prep up, and step up. Your Republic needs you if it is to survive. The left will never separate peaceably, their lust for total control won’t let them.
An amicable separation would have been constitutional and legal in 1860 but who really wanted one? Europe did.
The strong rise not in their homes, but on the field. The strong stand with courage on the field. The strong stand in defiance of the wicked, amidst the broken bodies to say, Here I am! Though they may tremble, it is but a moment. The strong shall stand and not flee. Courage and strength are infectious.
Keep what is yours. Not one inch surrendered to the wicked. Separation is surrender by degree. Separation encourages the other side to invite whatever wickedness they may find.
Already are places like California opening the door to China. Separation is how you get China in official capacity on our shores, in North America. Separation means no resistance in the surrendered territory. They’ll shift gears and increase their speed.
Humble yourself before God, pray, and seek his face.
