Please Please PLEASE Stop Sniveling!!
|
I got
another of those email exchanges between rightist
"leaders" that
concluded with "I'll show 'em, I'll surrender." I
hear it all the time and
I'm sick of it.
For the few who don't get what I am talking about, I
am referring to
pro-white Southerners who groan that the enemy is too
large. These snivelers
tell us that, while they themselves are basically
great heroes, they feel the
Honorable and Practical thing to do right now is give
up.
"Hold me back, hold me back!!!" they shout, and they
tell us they would be
great fighters, but it's all hopeless, so they
recommend that we all go into
a fetal position with them.
They call this realism. I call it sniveling.

General Lee's Fatal Mistake
|
Historians love to paint a verbal picture of General Lee at
Appomattox, the
noble Virginia Gentleman in his clean and pressed gray
uniform offering
Honorable Surrender to his fellow Americans.
What no one ever mentions is the fact that Robert E. Lee
bitterly regretted
that Honorable Surrender for the rest of his life.
The night before Lee surrendered, he called a meeting of his
general staff.
He told them he wanted to surrender not only his army, but
all the Confederate
forces in order to end the bloodshed. He would leave the
South's fate to
his fellow Americans.
A brigadier general from South Carolina (where else?)
pointed out that those
were not honorable Americans, they were Yankees. He
demanded that Lee's
small remaining army throw away its heavy equipment and run
for the nearby
Blue Ridge Mountains to form a guerilla force.
Lee refused to be a last-ditch guerrilla leader. He lived
to see General
Grant, the man he Honorably Surrendered to, become President
Grant and impose
military occupation and Reconstruction on a helpless South.
A South that was helpless largely because of Lee.
When Lee surrendered, there were hundreds of thousands of
Confederate soldiers
still in arms. As Commander in Chief, he surrendered them
all.
The North could not have enslaved us so easily if we had had
a guerrilla
force still in being after 1865. General Shelby could have
led his forces
to Lee's guerrillas rather than to Mexico. The thousands of
Southerners who
went to Americana in Brazil and the others who died trying
could have gone to
join Lee.
But it was all hopeless, Lee said. So he quit.
And Lee never forgave himself for it until his death at the
height of
Reconstruction.

South Carolina and Surrender
|
A professor of military history at West Point wrote a book
about how America
won the Revolution. He said America lost its cities the way
the Confederacy
did, but they just kept right on fighting. He said the
South couldn't do
this in the Civil War because we had slaves.
I wrote this high-level military history professor about the
Revolutionary
War in South Carolina after Charleston fell. South Carolina
had one of
history's classic guerrilla wars going under the Swamp Fox
Francis Marion.
At that time, I pointed out, South Carolina had more blacks
than whites,
especially in the Low Country where Marion fought.
The professor wrote me and thanked me. He pointed out,
without the slightest
trace of embarrassment, that he didn't know that.
In the real world, the facts about Francis Marion didn't
matter, because the
professor was getting paid to make a Politically Correct
point about how
slavery made the Confederacy lose. Professors don't get
paid to recite
facts.
If Francis Marion had been Robert E. Lee, we would have lost
the Revolutionary
War. Marion was a general too, just like Lee. At one
point there were only
eight men sitting out there in the swamp with him. If
Marion had said he had
to be a Great Commander or he wouldn't play, he would have
handed in his
sword many times.

Our Forces are
Still Enormous
|
At Appomattox,
Lee saw his thousands of men as a tiny, useless force compared
to the huge Yankee Army. A few years later, as a helpless
old man under the
brutal Yankee occupation of the South, he would have given
anything to have a
tithe of those forces as an army in being.
And this does not take into account the hundreds of thousands
of other men in
gray he surrendered to the Union.
Our forces today are still enormous. They would be bigger
still if we
stopped sniveling. It is true that anti-white whites
outnumber us. But I
do not go into a fetal position under my bed about this. I
point out that
they are anti-white and wait as a painfully small number of
them begin to
realize that I am right.
Academia is training millions of young people to hate
everything we want to
save. So I wrote a book that should be in the hands of every
young person
going to college. He could humiliate his professors with it.
But for every single person who uses my book and promotes it,
there will be
ten sitting around and sniveling about how hopeless everything
is.
Terrorism has brought our fight against anti-whites and open
borders -- and
even diversity itself! -- to center stage. The snivelers keep
sniveling.
More and more whites are taking on the mentality of a
threatened minority.
The best fighting whites ever did was as a threatened minority
in the South
and in South Africa.
But the snivelers would rather snivel.
The best times are ahead. If you want to spend that time
pouting, please go
under your bed where I can't see you.
We have a war on our hands and we don't need a bunch of
sob-sisters to
discourage us.
