One of the most misunderstood attribute of American excellence is our virtue of "independence."

Most people misunderstand what we mean by this, thinking it must refer to each *individual* acting in their own accord, but this is very, very wrong.

When my ancestors crossed the plains to settle virgin ground (really, land that the Indians abandoned due to their population getting wiped out by disease), they traveled in groups.

The FUNDAMENTAL GROUP of American society is the FAMILY. By this we mean a mother and a father and their children. However, extended family is also vitally important.

FAMILIES survive together, not individuals. Sure, there were trappers and mountain men who lived apart and individually, but for every one of those you know of, hundreds ended up dead in the woods for one reason or the other. Keep in mind, these men were outcasts and genuinely alone in this world, with no family or friends to keep them company or to keep them back from exploring the wilderness on their own. Although we relied on the information they brought back, and in many cases, we owe our lives to them teaching us vital survival skills, ultimately they are not what we mean by independence.

Families come together into communities. Self-governing bodies where no family dominates the other. If you're not familiar with Locke or parliamentary procedure, you don't know how we could organize ourselves without a leader. I won't try to explain, except to say that any white American who doesn't know what "parliamentary procedure" is needs to get a copy of the condensed "Roberts Rules of Order" and learn the basics for themselves. It will help you quickly organize any group of people who have come together for any reason.

Families are strong, and communities can be even stronger, as long as people put in more than they take out. It was expected that the community would care for the poor and such, with the intention of having families support themselves and contribute back. We don't help each other looking for some kind of reward or repayment, we just do it because "it's the right thing to do."

These concepts are literally all we had to colonize the west. Families organized into companies and traveled together. They elected a leader and they pooled their resources democratically. They sacrificed for each other and put more in than they took out of the community pot. They knew that this was the only way to survive, that any behavior less than this would lead to their suffering and eventually death.

When we read about people's perverse ideas about individualism or independence, how they treat it like a license to act like a jerk, to hurt others, or to put your own desires above the desires of others, we just shake our heads and agree that such behavior is not acceptable in civilized society.

When we encounter people who do this, we have a mechanism to protect the bunch from the rotten apples. Living in a small community, I am now "in" and people are telling me who to trust and who not to trust. I am doing my own best to determine whether the people whispering in my ear are trustworthy themselves. But ultimately, I know that if I am not putting more out and helping my neighbors more than I am being helped, it will all be for naught. And those who do put themselves out there are entitled to special privileges. You can bet dollars to donuts if times get tough for them I'll be digging deep in my own pockets to find something to offer them.

THIS is what we mean by the spirit of independence. We don't rely on the whole body. We don't rely on each other, really. We act in a way where we are fully aware that our behavior is directly linked to the survival of our group.

Are Americans unique in this attribute? Probably not. But I daresay, especially in rural USA, that this is the predominant value that we all hold on to.

What made "Whites" the predominant race on the face of the earth? You might think it's something like superior intellect, or empathy, or our superior physical condition, or culture, or any number of things like that.

And it was true, for certain points in history, that those attributes were highly desirable and able to propagate throughout the race. But the sad, sad truth is that for most of European history, those attributes were NOT favored nor desired. Your governments were selecting for people with inferior attributes and punishing those who had any remarkable talent or ability. Search your heart and history, you know it is true.

In fact, it was only during periods of chaos and war that Europeans were free to exercise these attributes and to procreate accordingly. England, because she was in a near-constant state of war for her very existence was able to forge a superior race of men that quickly abandoned her once the opportunity presented itself.

Do Europeans possess those attributes today? No. In fact, I guarantee you Europeans don't even understand why these attributes are desired. We opened up our borders to all of Europe in the 1920s, and those who fled represented the best and brightest among you. We depopulated Europe of her prize people, and left the rest to rot and fester the continent.

Granted, the United States are a pale shadow of what we used to be. This is true, and it is OUR problem, not yours. You do not possess the capability even to understand what it is we are a shadow of or how we got her from there nor even conceive of how we are going to get back.

You Europeans do not matter to us. Your opinion is irrelevant. Your technology is not desired nor desirable. You produce nothing that we want. We don't want your people, we don't want your money, we don't even want your respect. You don't matter to us. We don't ever think about you, even though we spend a lot of time thinking about the Third Reich, Julius Caesar and Alexander the Great, those few periods of time when Europe did something worthwhile. And even then we look back and identify their mistakes and try to correct them.

France is a third world country. So is England and Germany. It's more obvious now than it was 50 years ago. Heck, my dad who grew up in rural USA was deployed to Europe in the 60s and his one conclusion was that rural US is far wealthier and far more desirable to live in than any place in Europe. There was nothing there he wanted. He was happy to get back to Nowhere USA to build and raise a family.

Russia will NEVER compete with the US in any realm, and they never have not for over 100 years now, and to be frank, they are your best bet. In fact, you should all make Putin the new Julius Caesar as he's really the only hope you have to ever be great again. The fact that your continent rejects him and treat him like an outcast when he is one of the few people who understands the truth and actually speaks it sometimes is a sign of your ridiculous state.

We are worlds apart and it will never change, unless we ourselves become European, possibly because the smart ones among us flee to space or something.

This is the sad fact of reality, and you need to accept it. Take reality for what it is, confront it directly, and move forward.

We are not your enemy, we are not your rival, and we are not your friend. Get over it.
