Our once great nation seems to be coming apart right before our eyes. Americans are perhaps more divided on social and political matters than at any other time throughout its history. Not only are we experiencing a recession and a proxy war against Russia on behalf of Ukraine that’s costing taxpayers billions each month, but crime throughout the country has skyrocketed (at least in every Blue state and major city). Anti- White rhetoric in the public sphere is not only viewed as perfectly tolerable, but it’s increasing as well. Jewish activist groups such as the ADL are on the constant warpath to stamp out even the slightest whiff of any perceived “anti-Semitism.”

The federal government lies openly to the American people, and a complicit media makes certain to obfuscate any information that might place the Biden administration in a poor light—right now they’re gearing up to intimidate witnesses who might shed light on the Biden family influence pedaling scams. Gay marriage, Transgender acceptance, Critical Race Theory and drag queen story hour are unashamedly promoted by our public-school systems. District Attorney Office’s throughout many U.S. states are intentionally lenient in terms of sentencing Black and Hispanic criminals as a means of eradicating “systemic racism” from the justice system. This not only perverts justice, but it exacerbates the nation’s widespread crime problem since offenders are continuously released back into the same communities they’ve victimized.

The 2020 presidential election was fraught with fraud, and the recent mid-term elections seemed to have had its fair share as well. All of this and more has led some to decry that the entire system is “rigged,” and that voting is “useless.” Whether it’s Democrats or Republicans, the entire Congress is corrupt (save a select few members). Congressional treason becomes even more evident when one realizes that commitment to Israel’s security is their top priority, including giving billions annually to the nation for their military defense. Putting “America first” is evidently the farthest thought from our Congress.

Claiming that America’s two-party political system is nothing more than a “uniparty” seems at times to have some validity. Both Democrats and Republicans, for example, support illegal immigration, although for different reasons. The Democrats see illegals as their new and growing voter base, whereas Republicans see them as cheap labor for corporations and small businesses. Everyone seems to win except the average White American whose country is slipping away right before them.

Republicans and Democrats largely agree that racial ‘diversity’ is a good thing for the country. Both parties also support “gay and LGBTQ+ rights.” Both Republicans and Democrats maintain unwavering support for Israel and are committed to stamping out every vestige of “anti- Semitism.”

None of this is good for Heritage Americans who wish to maintain an authentic connection to the vision of their nation’s Founders.

Along with these discouraging realities comes the chorus to abandon voting altogether, to disengage from the corrupt political system, especially when one recalls the level of obeisance Trump gave to Jews and Israel. Governor Ron DeSantis, if ever elected to the highest office in the land, will prove to be no better than Trump in this regard. Neither will Gov. Glenn Youngkin of Virginia. GOP leadership has a long record of not providing their party with a true reformer, a fighter who’s willing to get dirty with the Democrats. The closest we’ve had was Donald Trump, and he was despised from the very outset by establishment Republicans. He managed, unfortunately, to also discredit his own efforts by appointing persons to his administration that undermined him at every step. Trump also failed to stay on target and to fulfill his campaign promises.

One writer, Richard Solomon, has expressed in clear terms the futility of voting and playing the Republican-versus-Democrat election charade:

What makes voting such a destructive psyop is that we’re in a never- ending election cycle. A lot of people exert much of their emotional energy on the Red vs. Blue puppet show. I think it would be psychologically healthier to accept that voting in a dictatorship is as much a waste of time as fitting Janet Yellen with a chastity belt. I understand why some cling to the “we live in a democracy” fantasy. Reality can be harsher than sandpaper underwear. (“Breaking the Voting Psyop Addiction,” The Unz Review, November 23, 2022)

It’s hard not to empathize with Solomon’s article; he makes some valid points. It’s easy to get so disgusted with the current situation of the country and just throw up one’s hands and give up. I seriously doubt, however, that such an approach will prove fruitful in the end. Oh sure, it sounds good in theory. As Joseph Stalin once said, “It’s not the vote that counts, but who counts the votes.” Of what value, then, is voting in such a corrupt and rigged system? If you try to engage the system by voting or accept its validity, you only prove what a gullible sheep you are, right? But what it amounts to is nothing more than an emotional temper tantrum declaring that it’s all pointless, that the situation is hopeless and there’s not anything we can do about it.
