The South Was Right! But It Didn’t Have The Cult To Cultivate Longevity

Mandeville, La – It was a surprise to learn from Charles Hugh Smith that less than 10% of American “workers” (I loathe that term) are actually, definably, self-employed while the other 90% “work for the Man”. This is a complete reversal of “the freedom” the revolutionists of 1792 promised and modernity was going to joyously deliver. I mentioned that in the 1930’s 12 Southern Authors wrote a series of essays called “I’ll Take My Stand”; the last serious attempt to restrain or slow the emasculation of Southern civilization from the convenience of secular consumption but alas, Locke, Hume, hegel and Marx had made resistance a Borg-like futile strut. One of the “Standers” lamented their failure in 1945, thus:
“I find an irony at my expense in remarking that the judgment just delivered by the Declaration of Potsdam against the German people is that they shall return to an agrarian economy. Once I should have thought there could have been no greater happiness for a people, but now I have no difficulty in seeing it for what it is meant to be: a heavy punishment. Technically it might be said to be an inhuman punishment, in the case where the people in the natural course of things have left the garden far behind.”

There’s plenty more about the Stander’s failed yet gallant effort below, question is, who will next attempt to “Take My Stand”?
