In 2015 or 2016, as I watched the rise of Trump, I made an observation:
The Mind and the Body of the West are splitting.
I made this observation because Trump's election was particularly polarized between white-collar and blue-collar Americans.
Blue-collar Americans, who also supported Bernie Sanders in 2016, seemed to simply be interested in disrupting the system. They felt that the white-collar corporate interests had ruled America far too long, and wanted to see a government that fought for them.
Their much-hated enemy Hillary Clinton, the Democratic candidate, was the ultimate representative of corporate interests. She mentioned, in one speech, about how her "dream is a hemispheric common market, with open trade and open borders, some time in the future with energy that is as green and sustainable as we can get it, powering growth and opportunity for every person in the hemisphere." (https://wikileaks.org/podesta-emails/emailid/927)
Trump criticized her for this, saying she wanted open borders. Obviously, he was right. And, in that election, the body triumphed over the mind. For the first time that most could remember, we got a president who explicitly wanted to tariff other countries, and who was not dedicated to free trade but to advancing his own citizens by using the national government.
It is this latter part - "advancing his citizens using the national government" - that is most interesting. Such a thing had not been done since Hitler lost the war.
After all, this was the meaning of "National Socialism" - in opposition to communism or capitalism, which were both international ideologies, "National Socialism" stood alone. At the time, many people in the Allied Armies believed they were fighting for their nation. But, has this proved to be true? Not at all.
Since 1945, all political action has been dominated by "objective principles," meaning principles that apply to all human beings equally. A nationalist nation will prioritize its own citizens, even if there is no other reason than that they are its citizens. A globalist nation, on the other hand, will prioritize whichever humans seem to align to some objective "human" value, such as "democracy", "freedom", or "rule of law".
As it turns out, the mind-body split originates not with Trump, but with Churchill and Hitler.
Germany was the heir to Rome. It was German tribes who eventually conquered the Western Empire, after immigrating legally for many years.
Churchill and England took the position of the mind - with the aid of the Jews - and they defeated Germany, the most robust body of Europe.
Then, what happened? Exactly what Hitler predicted - the body of Europe began to change. The British Empire fell apart, and Britain was invaded by just as many foreigners as Germany.
Brown peoples from Southern nations began to pour into the West. Europe received many Muslims and Africans, and America received many Mexicans and other Hispanics.
And, while this was happening, something else happened. The Mind of the West began to change too. Slowly, then all at once, The Protestant English elites, who emerged victorious from the war, began to be pushed out.
We were pushed out of universities, corporations, and banks. We were displaced from the identity of our nations, and we were maligned in the popular culture. Now, the English man is even more endangered than the German. The English man - the victor of the Great War and the settler of the United States, Australia, and Canada - is the closest to erasure of any Westerner.
There is only one group in America who does not hyphenate their name, and that is English Americans. Even German-Americans, Irish-Americans, Swedish-Americans and are not as synonymous with America as the English. The late Supreme Court Justice Antonin Scalia, who was Italian, recognized this fact himself when he visited England.
England has a character. England has a people. This people conquered the world - and that is why we have so many enemies.
The truth about the future of the West is that it cannot simply be European - it must be English. The English must rise again. If the English do not take back America, it will become Spanish. If the English do not take back Canada, it will become Indian. If the English do not take back Australia, it won't even exist. And, if the English do not take back England, it will be violently destroyed.
Civilization, no matter how early, always follows two pathways in its development. These are communication and transportation.
As transportation increases, humans are able to communicate more frequently and efficiently. And, as humans are able to communicate more frequently and efficiently, they are able to create new pathways for travel.
Which came first? Who knows. Both are the same phenomenon. Both are civilization.
Which is more important? Is it better to prioritize the mind, and to build communication pathways in the assumption that they will aid the body? Or, is it more important to expand the physical path of the body, so that the mind can achieve greater exchange of ideas?
Again, they seem to be very similar philosophies. But, with Churchill and Hitler, they split.
Hitler was a rather parochial man, who grew up in lower-middle-class rural areas and advanced in society by barely making a living with art. Then, he joined the army, and only made it to the rank of corporal.
Churchill, on the other hand, was a traveled aristocrat who grew up watching his Parliamentarian father. He got his worldly experiences as a wartime journalist, opportunistically sailing around the world and building fame due to his father's reputation.
In their ultimate philosophies, Churchill favored the Athenian values of the Empire - he was not comfortable with outright racial politics. Instead, he preferred to build a coalition of the English and other races, with the idea that the English would be the overall rulers. He believed that, if English ideas and culture could be spread as wide as possible, the English would inevitably profit. This is why we can say that he was focused on the mind, rather than the body. He was concerned with the travel of ideas, rather than the location of people.
Hitler, on the other hand, was parochial. He hated multiculturalism, and simply wanted to return to the land and tradition. He wanted to eject foreigners from the German body, and then expand that body drastically to the East. The problem he encountered, though, is that multiculturalism had taken root in Germany already. Therefore, he was forced to make drastic changes in a short period of time, to attempt a solution. He adopted the Spartan ideal of using philosophy and the system as a tool to alter the racial makeup of his nation and the world, through both eugenics and expansionism.
So - who was right? Who was closer to the truth?
In the end, Churchill and the English got the better of Germany. However, Churchill was proven wrong in many ways:
Multiculturalism, tolerance, and ideas have failed us as national principles. They have not benefitted the stability or strength of the English nations after the war. Eighty years later, Australia and America and Canada and England are all undergoing crises, which exactly reflect Hitler's predictions. Globalist, secular Jews exert a decadent and degenerating force on English societies, while Barbaric Arabs, Blacks, Hispanics, and Indians are unleashed on English land.
These two men - one of mind, one of body - still represent the split deep within our people today. The king distrusts the peasant, and the peasant distrusts the king. And that is why we are failing.
