A D+ Examination of America’s Political Situation

Morris van de Camp

2,628 words

Kevin M. Kruse & Julian E. Zelizer
Fault Lines: A History of the United States Since 1974
New York: Norton & Company, Inc., 2019

Professors Kevin Kruse and Julian Zelizer have written a book in which they argue that the fault lines of America’s polarized political culture started to emerge around 1974. The main political trends that year were the Watergate scandal, rising crime, the unsatisfactory end to the Vietnam War, and the accelerating deindustrialization across the Rust Belt and other parts of America.

The authors say the same basic things about the chaotic environment of the 1970s as Rick Pearlstein does in his book The Invisible Bridge (2014). They also discuss the important cultural works of the time, including Taxi Driver (1976) and Network (1976). Both movies explore the incredible frustration of the public over the abovementioned issues.

After 1974, a new conservativism became a major force in American politics. According to the authors, the Religious Right and the secular New Right have been the most prominent of the domestic American political movements ever since. This Right-wing force is the front rank of the fault lines in America’s polarized political climate.

I agree with that basic theme, although I don’t think it is well presented in the book. The technocratic Leftism, heavily Jewish, that was so prominent in the early 1960s was a package of ideas and racial interests that had been advancing through American society since the late 1870s. Part of the counter-culture of the late 1960s and turn to the Right in the 1970s was a reaction by American whites to the disasters caused by technocratic Leftism — the Vietnam War and “civil rights” in particular. It is a new intellectual movement with ferocious adversaries in the mainstream media so it was then and remains now a bumpy ride with plenty of bad press.

Anita Bryant led a movement against militant homosexuality which started in the late 1970s.

One such Religious Right activist mentioned is Anita Bryant. Bryant was an evangelical Protestant singer from the 1950s who led a reaction against militant homosexuality. She likely derailed the militant gay movement for decades. In the late 1970s, the Equal Rights Amendment (ERA) was on the verge of ratification, but Phyllis Schlafly recognized that the ERA would strip away traditional common law protections for women and created a powerful movement that eventually defeated the ERA by 1982. The conservative activist Paul Weyrich also organized Christian social conservatives — both Catholics and Protestants — into a formidable force.

Phyllis Schlafly realized that the Equal Rights Amendment actually stripped legal protections for women, such as exemption from conscription or separate bathrooms. Her campaign turned out to be a masterful work of metapolitics and political activism. Eventually, legal scholars came to agree with her point of view.

Ronald Reagan was elected in 1980. He courted social and religious conservatives, but did very little for them. After his election, Reagan’s popularity dropped and his agenda was likely to be stalled, but he was shot by a mentally ill man in 1981. As a result of this shooting, Reagan’s popularity soared and much of his agenda made it through Congress. Reagan wasn’t president at the end of the Cold War, but his administration’s policies destroyed the Soviet Union. Reagan’s foreign policy was a success, his domestic revolution — only a partial victory.

Paul Weyrich’s political activism is a remarkable accomplishment. He united socially conservative Roman Catholics with conservative Protestants. This uniting overturned centuries of mistrust between the two groups. There is a racial angle to this also. Most of this group were racial Nordics with some genetic tie to the founding stock of America. These groups were finding commonality in the face of a racial attack upon them.

Cable TV and the Internet

On the day of the attempted assassination of President Reagan, CNN was ahead of all the other networks in announcing the news. This scoop was the result of a revolution in communications that was quietly occurring. It started when engineers and technicians set up an antenna in a good spot (such as a hilltop) and then ran cable from it to the television sets of the community. This allowed for a clearer TV picture. Shortly thereafter, larger companies expanded upon the idea, and new networks grew up that specialized in particular areas, ESPN for sports, HBO for movies, and most importantly CNN, for broadcast news.

The attempted assassination of President Ronald Reagan on March 30, 1981 proved the efficacy of 24-hour cable news.

The cable TV revolution created a social revolution that continues today. As a result of cable TV’s unlimited ability to produce different types of shows and channels, viewers divided into many subcultural groups. In the 1950s, the entire nation got its news and pop culture music from a very small selection of sources. Due to cable’s arrival in the 1980s, music fans, for example, had become divided into fans of different musical denominations. There were punk rockers, heavy metal fans, etc. News became a mix of entertainment and political slant. The proliferation of the video cassette recorder (VCR) allowed another vice to flourish — pornography. Cell phones and personal computers further dialed in people to a massive, but potentially narrow information network. The internet became available to households by the mid-1980s.

The Pattern is Firmly Set

By the end of the 1980s, the pattern for modern American polarization first formed in 1974 was firmly set. While at the private level, American culture was becoming crasser, especially with pornography, at the public level, many politicians became increasingly prude. Congress had hearings on violent video games and dirty lyrics in songs. Although it wasn’t apparent at the time, the Gulf War pulled the United States deeper into the quagmire of the Middle East. An economic recession in the early 1990s (which put the fathers of several of my high school friends out of work) helped Bill Clinton defeat Reagan’s successor the centrist George H. W. Bush. Clinton was a deeply flawed man, but overall he was very successful. He also talked a Leftist game, but did many Rightist things. His greatest act was the 1994 Crime Bill that ended a massive, sub-Saharan crime wave that had been ongoing for three decades.

Meanwhile, the Republicans played a scorched-earth political game. Clinton was impeached for a private matter while Islamic terrorists gathered strength. The Democratic Party covered for the FBI and ATF after the Waco fiasco even after both agencies failed to prevent the first World Trade Center bombing. George W. Bush campaigned on cultural issues, but his disastrous war in Iraq also damaged the Religious Right. Obama was elected as a reconciler, but he too faced ferocious political polarization.

Critical Analysis: D+ at Best

The book is a solid recounting of the near half-century between Watergate and the Trump administration, but it has several flaws. The flaw from which all others flow is the intellectual smugness of the authors. This smugness comes out in phrases like “lily-white suburbs.” Why not balance that morally loaded phrase with one about “coal-black inner-city ghettos?” Likewise, in online interviews, they talk credulously about issues smug liberals believe in, such as “climate change.” [1] Thus the book recounts some facts, but contains few insights.

The authors don’t grasp, summarize, or attempt to explain exactly why so many intelligent people, such as Phyllis Schlafly, embark on personally risky Right-wing crusades that go against the Establishment.

I’ll add that they didn’t read or attempt to understand the most serious Right-wing book circulating in 1974, The Dispossessed Majority (1972). In that book, Wilmot Robertson describes American politics as a clash between minorities — Jews and sub-Saharan Africans especially — and “the Majority,” white Americans with roots among the colonial settlers or other Northern and Western Europeans. This is the central issue facing America then and today and understanding it clarifies many issues.

I’ll argue that most of the social issues in today’s polarized political environment are proxy wars for the racial clash described by Wilmot Robertson. A perfect example of this is the January 18, 2019 incident between high school boys from Covington Catholic High School, an Indian beating a drum, and “Black Hebrews.” The boys were in Washington for the March for Life Rally, an anti-abortion demonstration. The Indian beat a drum in the face of one of the young men while the “Black Hebrew” activists shouted insults at the boys. CNN deceptively described the event as whites harassing a “tribal elder.”

None of it was true and CNN had to pay settlements to the boys. In fact, the March for Life attendees and the non-whites were not in DC for ideologically opposing goals. The pro-Life movement isn’t technically about race. But it is a proxy for race. CNN, the “tribal elder,” and the “Black Hebrews” understood that fact very well.

This image was deceptively framed by CNN as a “tribal elder” being threatened and surrounded by hostile young white men. In fact, the young men were attending a Pro-Life rally. The abortion issue is a proxy around race that developed in the 1970s. It is a cultural rally point that whites use to organize against sub-Saharan violence unleashed by “civil rights” without having to admit it.

Critical Analysis: “Civil Rights” Problems, Watergate, and Media Bias

The authors do argue that the “civil rights” movement was a major driver of polarization. They write:

The civil rights and immigration reforms of the mid-1960s succeeded in tearing down old walls of division, but in the rubble that remained it became increasingly difficult to discern anything that resembled a coherent or cohesive “American” identity. Rather than adopt the mainstream values of the white majority and adapt to its culture, racial and ethnic minorities increasingly sorted themselves into communities they made on their own terms and in their own images. (pp. 55 & 56)

However, they don’t seriously look at the problems within “civil rights” that impacted American whites (i.e. Wilmot Robertson’s American Majority). The 1964 Civil Rights Act is an illicit second constitution that tramples upon white interests. This Act empowers any group that can analogize to the situation of Negroes in the 1950s South. This includes immigrant terrorists, men pretending to be women, etc. Furthermore, sub-Saharans failed to live up to their end of the bargain. Implied in the act was avoiding crime, serving on a jury in good faith, etc. That did not happen.

Sub-Saharan behavior coupled with non-white immigration means that no white can genuinely trust a member of the Democratic Party or those advancing the interests of “marginalized” groups. “Civil rights” is a racial attack — an attempt to overwhelm and suppress whites. Additionally, believers in “civil rights” misread data. “Civil rights” supporters must point the arrow of causality regarding social problems the wrong way. With “civil rights,” it’s “police violence,” not sub-Saharan crime — a Muslim ban becomes “baseless,” rather than a rational response to considerable Islamist violence, etc. This fact is often understood by many, but cannot be expressed due to the social victory of “civil rights.”

In Fault Lines, the various stories of black thugs killed by whites, such as Trayvon Martin and Michael Brown, are presented through the lens of the mainstream media rather than the larger story of black misbehavior driving events that came out on the internet or during the various event-related trials. The deliberate misinformation regarding the Martin & Brown deaths exemplified by media-promoted pictures of Trayvon Martin as a child rather than showing pictures closer to his older and more menacing age at death makes one wonder if the pictures of Emmett Till shown by the media in the 1950s were equally disingenuous.

It is often impossible for sensitive whites, however liberal, to not eventually notice sub-Saharan pathology, low IQ, and poor thinking. The late Lawrence Auster, a onetime hippie, wrote the following about how noticing sub-Saharan thinking patterns raised his sense of racial awareness:

Following the arguments and actions of black leaders, and listening to black callers on talk radio, led me over several years to an increasingly bleak view of black thinking styles. For one thing, it seemed to me that many blacks have a marked tendency to pick up some slogan and then just use it without much logical connection to the subject at hand. I also became increasingly aware of the “hustle,” the way many blacks at all levels – from street people and politicians to celebrated “intellectuals” like Cornel West – did not use ideas as ideas, but as a hustle, as a way of manipulating people’s feelings. Suggestibility and the substitution of rhetoric for reason are general human weaknesses, but it seemed to me that these failings were noticeably more pronounced among blacks. Of course there are many blacks who are rational and logical and intellectually competent. But the preponderance of irrationality among the black population is hard to ignore.

Watergate wasn’t a particularly heinous or unusual political dirty trick. Kennedy and Johnson had employed plenty of similar tricks on Nixon going back at least until 1960. The source for the scandal, “Deep Throat,” was a disgruntled FBI agent who was angry he was passed over for the top job. When this came out, one could wonder if the pious pronouncements of outrage from the press regarding Nixon’s “cover-up” were genuine or cynical ploys to remove a man they’d long hated. None at the time recognized that the FBI had become a political actor in its own right; a semi-competent Pretorian Guard unable to protect America, but able to jealously guard its own privileges and funding streams.

Likewise, Watergate should be seen as a pyrrhic victory for the mainstream media. Prior to 1974, a single media figurehead, such as Walter Cronkite, could change the minds of millions with a thirty-second editorial. After Nixon and Watergate, the pretense of media neutrality was destroyed, and Nixon staffers such as the late Roger Ailes moved to create media outlets outside the mainstream.

The End Super Tuesday Suggestion

All white advocates should work to destroy the 1964 Civil Rights Act, but in the short term, I suggest ending Super Tuesday to reduce polarization. In the primary season, most of the South holds their primaries on the same day — “Super Tuesday.” This creates a situation where the Democratic candidate for president must appeal to sub-Saharan voters to pull ahead of the pack. As a result, sub-Saharan issues have come to be the overriding concern for the Democratic Party. Naturally, whites must resist Democrats this since sub-Saharan criminality and pathologies are such overwhelming issues. If the states of the South held their primaries on different days and wait until later in the primary season to hold their vote, this situation would change somewhat.

Notes

[1] Climate change is very likely a necessary prop for the Democratic Party. It is a vague threat that offends no group within the party, and the predictions of doom never come to pass. But it has the ability to unite the various factions of that party while suppressing the jobs of working-class whites – the group that the Democratic Party elite has come to loathe and fear. When the Republicans return to power, they’ll need to present a considerable body of evidence showing that Climate Change is a myth. This effort will need to involve scientists, a marketing campaign, and present historical evidence for the falsity of earlier declarations of doom (in the 1970s there were predictions of a new Ice Age). Meanwhile, they still must protect the environment.

    Really interesting article.  I thought the history of cable was informative.

    I too wonder about the veracity of the emit till story.  Michael Jones does a good job of exploding the scarsborough boys hoax in his Jewish revolutionary spirit book.  When the media narrative hangs so much on one event like Emmit till, one has to wonder how much it could be faked or greatly distorted in its essentials.


    I finally received Wilmot Robertson’s Ventilations, a collection of occasional articles, the other day.  I can hardly believe how brilliant the man was.  How he diagnosed all the ills we face today so well.

    An adequate article, though the flaws of this book have been explored a number of times in the rightist press already. Also, both Kruse and esp Zelizer are major time progressive liberals, esp on racial issues. Anything they write is guaranteed to be biased from a proggie perspective.

     

    A few quibbles:

    “After 1974, a new conservativism became a major force in American politics.” Umm, “conservativism” literally went out of fashion by no later than the 1940s. Since, we speak of “conservatism”.
    “The internet became available to households by the mid-1980s.” Does the author mean “mid-90s”? I don’t know a single person who had home internet before around 1995. I went to an “Ivy League” university (class of 1983), and another for grad school a few years later, and neither of their “computer centers” had internet access (nor had I ever heard of the term “internet” in the 80s, that I can recall). I did have a very primitive email account at my work in 1993, but thought it silly.
    ” Bill Clinton defeat Reagan’s successor the centrist George H. W. Bush. Clinton was a deeply flawed man, but overall he was very successful. He also talked a Leftist game, but did many Rightist things. His greatest act was the 1994 Crime Bill that ended a massive, sub-Saharan crime wave that had been ongoing for three decades.” Ok, maybe this is “eye of the beholder” stuff, but GHWBush was no centrist (that moniker would better describe Reagan – a “neoliberal of the center-Right” is how I think of the Gipper, as his 1986 illegal alien mass-amnesty showed he damn sure was no conservative). Every last thing (economy/taxes, immigration, “civil rights”, NWO, Gulf War) Elder Bush did was left-liberal except for the appointment of Clarence Thomas to SCOTUS, and even that was liberal in a way, as it validated the idea of a “black seat” on SCOTUS {Thomas replacing Thurgood Marshall}, even if Thomas himself was proven to have been the only really good thing Bush Sr actually did.
    And Slick Willie Clinton did not do “many rightist things”. He signed that crime bill that many of us on the Real right opposed at the time for, inter alia, its massive spending dump on “cities”, as well as its dangerous exacerbation of the trend towards the federalization of all policing; he raised taxes; he involved the US in multiple overseas engagements (Haiti, Somalia, later and most outrageously, Serbia) that had no connections to national (let alone racial national) interests; he tried to socialize and ruin the healthcare system; he massively violated the 2nd Amendment; he did nothing to stop immigration; he granted Most Favored Nation trading status to our long term geostrategic enemy, Maoist/Han Supremacist China; he put Constitution shredders on the courts; he signed NAFTA. Finally, he publicly and shamelessly stated in his second term that he “literally looked forward to the day when European-Americans are no longer in the majority in America.” How much more of a shitbag can one get?
    As to that 1994 omnibus crime bill “ending black criminality” (ie, at the level we’d suffered from since the mid-60s), this is a hoary myth, perhaps propagated in a very very weird way by what might be called “apologists for yesterday’s Democrats” [who in fact were awful, and have been since the Proggie Era of Woodrow Wilson] – persons who might be prowhites, but were never real conservatives. Just as I’ve discovered to my surprise over the decades many “conservatives” who are clueless-to-treasonous on racial preservation, I’m discovering that there is also a political current within which swim people who are racially loyal, but not really conservative otherwise. The latter group consists in those who want to pretend that, because some figure, usually of the center-left, was a not a race traitor {note: as Clinton manifestly was, however!}, therefore we should be ‘cool’ with all his other deviations from the classical conservative agenda. Well, I’m not, and no thanks. Just because a man is good (more usu. “not-awful”) on race does not make him a man of the Right.
    The black crime explosion, circa 1965-95, was ended via three concurrent areas of attack: a) more aggressive and proactive policing, esp in large cities; b) a widespread restoration of at least some traditional gun rights in many states (granted, often where they aren’t as needed, at least for anticrime purposes), embodied in better concealed carry as well as “stand your ground” self-defense laws; and perhaps most significantly, c) popular ballot “three strikes” propositions passed in many states which made it much easier for hardcore criminals to be locked away for long periods (along with occasional recalls of liberal judges, most famously in I think 1986, when CA Supreme Court Chief Justice Rose Bird and some other liberal Justices were recalled via ballot proposition). Clinton had nothing to do with any of this.
    “In Fault Lines, the various stories of black thugs killed by whites, such as Trayvon Martin and Michael Brown,” I cannot believe this must be corrected here, at a premier prowhite site! The man who killed Trayvon in self-defense WAS NOT WHITE!! George Zimmerman is clearly part white, part Hispanic, with the Latino part being the genetically stronger.
    “the FBI had become a political actor in its own right; a semi-competent Pretorian Guard unable to protect America“. Is the FBI suppressing crime in South Africa? I suspect MvdC meant “Praetorian”.
    “All white advocates should work to destroy the 1964 Civil Rights Act, but in the short term, I suggest ending Super Tuesday to reduce polarization.” I agree that the 1964 Civil Rights act of totalitarian integration is the main mechanism for the ongoing destruction of white America (along with the 1965 inaugurated immigration invasion). Good luck with getting it repealed. I mean this literally: we will have our Ethnostate before that happens (though I believe than ending immigration is, as ever, distinctly possible: I just had a conversation with a working class Latino-American two days ago who was complaining about Biden’s border policies). As to ending Super Tuesday, that may or may not be a good idea, but why do prowhites want to “reduce polarization”?

    I don’t know if it is the reviewer or the book that gets the dates all mixed up in this review.

     

    Just a few obvious things that seem to be unknown to the reviewer:

     

    1.  FM radio was the catalyst for the switch from general music cultures into more specific ones – not cable tv.  By the time cable came along, FM radio stations had already been geared towards their specific musical genres.

     

    2.  The reviewer states that “The internet became available to households by the mid-1980s”.  Most definitely not.  I was a student in the late ’80s in one of the handful of research Universities that was connected to supercomputers through what would later become the initial backbone of what became “the Internet” (with a capital “I”).  It wasn’t until the ’90s that anyone could connect to “the Internet”.  The “Internet” can’t even be said to have been in existence until then.  The mid-’90s is when “the Internet” took off big – probably with AOL (although I myself connected directly – not through AOL – sometime around ’94 IIRC).

     

    These are just 2 egregious instances that I think anyone who lived through these times would agree with me about.  I have issues with most of the statements in this review.  I looked up this Kevin Kruse and see that he was born in ’72.  I guess that explains the screwy understanding of the ’70s (he was still too young to know that decade very well).  But I would think he’d know better about the Internet (non-existent in the ’80s to any household).  But maybe he was even too young then.

     

    How old is this reviewer?  I take issue with just about every single thing claimed in this review.  I was born in ’66.
