Decolonization: What if Booting Radical Leftists Out of the US Is the Best Option?

Editor’s Commentary: The ideas presented by Brandon Smith below are clearly controversial. It’s not just the left that would object since they are the targets of his proposal. Many if not most on the right would point out the authoritarianism and constitutional incongruities. I’m publishing it anyway, not out of direct agreement with everything that he says but because it’s a thought experiment about drastic measures that may or may not be necessary during this current state of radical rebellion against our nation from within. Take from it what you will and tell me if you think he’s crazy or onto something…

(Alt-Market)—At what point does radical activism cross the line and become a declaration of war? It’s a question I’ve been pondering for a long time, as well as the implications it has for the concept of “democracy.” How much should civilization and heritage bend to the desires of contrary groups in the name of freedom? If a movement has consistently proven itself to be a destructive force that seeks to undermine the foundations of the west, should they be allowed to stay in the west? Is it authoritarian to kick them out? If it is, does it matter?

If these activists hate western culture so much, why would they want to stay in places like the US? Why not leave of their own accord to a nation or society that fits their philosophical demands? The only logical conclusion is that they stay because they want to sabotage the US and force everyone else to submit to their political vision. The truth is, leftists are ideological colonizers pretending to be “victims” of colonization.

Last year I published an article titled ‘A Study Of Cultism Shows Us Why Gatekeeping Against Leftists Is A Good Thing.’ The core of my argument was rooted in a historic example of far-left extremism and moral relativism allowed to run amok in a rural community in Oregon, and how state and federal governments eventually had to deal with the threat.

In 1981, the small town of Antelope, Oregon was chosen by the Rajneesh cult led by a man who would later call himself “Osho” as the future capital of his movement. After being run out of India by numerous investigation, the cult sought out a place where they could infiltrate and establish without much opposition. The Rajneesh would visit the town in limited numbers, buy up land, and then thousands arrived suddenly in waves.

The surrounding areas were primarily conservative, and this was the real genius behind the Rajneesh relocation. You see, in conservative regions of America there is a continuing respect for individual liberty and this is something we should always hold dear. That said, our habit of accepting people’s intentions at face value and assuming that discrimination is the same as authoritarianism sometimes gets us into trouble. “Democracy” without skepticism and discernment is a recipe for disaster, and frankly, not all freedom is good. There is such a thing as responsibility, which is a concept that remains alien to most progressives.

At first, the people of Antelope welcomed the Rajneesh with open arms under the notion that they would stick to their compound and let the townspeople be. However, as is always the case with collectivists, any minor resistance to their designs triggers a raging vendetta. The cult, not getting everything they wanted from the town, used their large numbers to take over the local government and push out the original residents.

The group was engaged in numerous criminal activities including fraud, bio-terrorism and sexual exploitation of members and minors. When they came under investigation by state officials they then planned a number of actions including attempts to steal elections, political assassinations, poisoning local restaurants to keep voter numbers down, etc. How did Oregonians respond? They blocked the Rashneesh members from voting based on a loophole, and eventually authorities ran Osho and his followers out of the country.

The town of Antelope and the surrounding areas celebrated joyously. The cancer that had infected their community was gone; a great and oppressive weight had been lifted.

Many conservatives and libertarians today might view the measures used by Oregon and US officials against the Rajneesh as unconstitutional. After all, many of their criminal activities were only suspected at the time, not proven. Yet, if you ask the people who lived in and around Antelope during that bizarre event, most of them would tell you they are thankful.

I use the Rajneesh as a comparison to the political left for good reason; their behaviors and methods are almost identical. They are both cults of moral relativism, placing subjectivity over facts and hedonism over self control.  They have also both used the western ideals of “democracy” and freedom as a weapon against the very people that hold those ideals dear.  One of Osho’s primary arguments was that if American officials came after him, they would be violating their own values and thus undermining their own system.

But maybe the system of liberty is not made for people who want to tear it down.  Maybe they don’t deserve its benefits.

Leftists think they have the edge because you have rules while they do not.  They see their Utopian vision as absolute, and anyone that stops them from getting what they want is a tyrant that must be eliminated by any means necessary. Usually this involves overwhelming less organized targets with a mob, tearing the community (or country) down piece by piece until there’s nothing left. Once deconstruction is complete, they then build whatever society they want on the ashes.

The only realistic solution in dealing with the Rajneesh cult was to run them out of the country on a rail. If they had refused, the only solution would have been to imprison them forever, or go to war. This is how the world really works – Sometimes there is no diplomatic or constitutional solution. Sometimes two sides cannot be reconciled and they must be separated, or they must fight until one or the other is gone.

The image of America as a land of freedom and opportunity preferable to third world dictatorships is a comforting one. Yet, this idea has also been perverted under the guise of progressive humanism.  The woke seem to think that freedom means they should be allowed to do whatever they want whenever they want, including violating the rights of others in the name of righteous indignation. They do not have any concept of “the non-aggression principle” that is spoken of fondly by Libertarians.

We saw this clear as day during the covid farce. We have seen it during many mob actions over the past five years alone. Leftists and globalists believe in double standards. They believe that the ends justify the means. And, they believe that western civilization is an “outdated” edifice with outdated rules. They believe it boxes them in and holds them back from achieving the pure ecstasy of their greater Utopia.

Once people understand that the woke care about winning over what is true and what is right it becomes much easier to embrace what needs to be done about them and their allies.

We Are At War

Woke acolytes and their elitist masters are not pursuing activism, they are pursuing war. It’s a 4^th Generation war using tactics of treachery, subterfuge and psychological manipulation, but it is a war all the same. And since they are at war with us, this begs the question – Is it not acceptable to return fire?

It is well understood and openly admitted by many woke activists that their ultimate goal is the deconstruction of western culture. What this means varies from group to group, but the overall mantra seems to be a “burn it all down and dance” approach. The latest phrase they use is “decolonization,” and this is a relatively clever tactic. Decolonization infers that leftists are not the aggressors, they are the “defenders” rebelling against a culture that stole land and resources from innocent victims.

Of course the entire history of the world fits that paradigm – Every culture, every race, every religion and almost every movement has at one time or another engaged in conquest. Historically, the political left is notorious for it. Their communist/socialist/fascist forebears killed many millions of people in the 20^th Century in the process of obtaining domain over one nation or another.

Every group has committed atrocities, at least by modern progressive standards. In many cases it was just war, and leftists say they want to punish the descendants of the winners. The colonization argument is nonsense; we know it’s nonsense and they know it’s nonsense. Why do they only care about colonization related to the west? Why not Asia? Why not the Islamic hordes of the Middle Ages? Why not the Aztecs and various violent Native American tribes? Because they only need an excuse to tear down western culture. That’s all there is to it.

It seems to me that conservatives and moderates are trying to solve this dispute with leftists within the confines of civilized rules and the ballot box, while leftists are using mobs, riots, corporate interference, government force, disinformation, school indoctrination and sabotage.

Decolonizing Leftists From Western Society

It’s not all doom and gloom; the woke movement has suffered multiple defeats in the culture war the past couple years. The public is growing tired of the propaganda saturation used by the establishment media and people are sick of woke busybodies inserting themselves into every aspect of daily life. That said, such monsters don’t go quietly into the night, they will try to wreak havoc as they are pushed back.

We can’t forget that through all of this turmoil the globalists still remain in their positions of power and influence. If they are not eliminated from the equation then it really doesn’t matter how many times leftists are defeated in the social arena, the money men will always have the resources to fund and train more radicals and the whole mess starts over again.

The logical conclusion is to recognize that these people will have to be removed from western culture, by force if necessary. This is not an outlandish prospect. Many nations including western nations have provisions for removing destructive people and organizations from their borders, even when they are natural born citizens.

In the US, this would be considered a violation of the 14^th Amendment and the rules of citizenship, but of course, the 14^th Amendment only applies to how the federal government conducts itself, not the general populace. And when someone engages in a war with a large percentage of the American public in an effort to annihilate their way of life, they do not deserve to be treated with kid gloves.

We all know where this conflict is heading. The balkanization of the US is assured in the near future, and this might ease tensions. But can red states and blue states live peacefully next to each other for very long? The political left and the globalists will NEVER give up on their fantasy of a fully centralized and socialist America, where all memory of true liberty is wiped away.

In some cases, discrimination is good. There can be no coexistence with such people, at least not in the organized form they have taken today. There are still hundreds of millions of Americans that value the core beliefs of the west: Meritocracy, free markets, private property, self sufficiency, independence, reason, critical thinking, childhood innocence and for many, religious devotion and discipline. The left values none of these things. If we do not defend our ground vigorously and soon, we will lose everything in the span of a single generation.
