UK Heading for Civil War

 The United States is divided for sure.  And when you read social media posts made by your cousin comparing Trump with Hitler and anyone who voted for him “doesn’t deserve to exist”, you now understand HOW a Civil War can happen.  I remember 30 years ago touring Antietam National Civil War Battlefield and saying, “how could this have happened where cousins from neighboring towns shot at each other?”  I now know the answer.

But it’s not just America that’s divided.  The UK is also a mess.  Muslims have been allowed in and are pushing for more and more shariah “rights.”  The Left wants tolerance, diversity, equity and inclusion for the very folks who want to take over.  There is a certain element that wants to destroy everything that is British.  Tradition, language, history, common sense are all being torn down.

Thankfully we have Trump to push back and try to return USA to a time of common sense.  But that could all be erased in 4 years if the Left returns to power and issues 80 executive orders in 2 months.  The UK doesn’t have Trump so they seem to driving quickly towards a cliff.

It’s a fact that the words CIVIL WAR have returned to chatter in America and UK, so file this under WARS AND RUMORS OF WAR.

Betz said that the situation is now “too far gone” and that a national eruption which will outstrip last summer’s riots is likely to happen within half a decade.

Writing on his Substack, Paul Embery outlined some of the other arguments Betz made during the podcast that led the professor to make his fateful prediction.

Betz contends that we now live in a deeply fractured nation and one that has much less connection to those aspects of its history which previously made it content and well governed. The nefarious activities of certain individuals and groups serve to exacerbate and magnify our divisions.

So, can a society in which such realities are playing out be said to be destined for civil war? Well, here comes the interesting bit. Betz explains that highly-heterogenous societies (those comprised of many different social, cultural and ethnic groups) in which there is no single dominant cohort are not especially prone to civil war. That is because no group has enough power or status to co-ordinate a widespread revolt. Similarly, highly-homogenous, or ‘unfactionated’, societies are not particularly vulnerable on account of the fact that it is generally easy to arrive at consensus positions. The danger area, Betz asserts, is in the middle – societies that are becoming more heterogenous and in which a previously dominant social majority fears that it is losing its place. In such societies, a nativist sentiment manifests in a narrative of what Betz calls ‘downgrading’ and ‘displacement’ – the most powerful causes of civil conflict. Throw in long-term structural economic decline and the apparent inability of the government to offer ‘bread and circuses’, and the sense of dispossession deepens.

He also addressed the phenomenon of ‘asymmetric multiculturalism’ in which ‘in-group preference, ethnic pride, and group solidarity – notably in voting – are acceptable for all groups except whites, for whom such things are considered to represent supremacist attitudes that are anathematic to social order’. This ‘provides an argument for revolt on the part of the white majority (or large minority) that is rooted in stirring language of justice’.

On the surface, the United Kingdom would seem like the least likely country to be susceptible to mass civil disorder, but thanks to years of societal malaise and mass immigration, it unfortunately feels like we’re on the brink of experiencing just that.
