When of one mind, Janus' views
form a composite of his two main sides. He attempts to consider issues with care and thoughtfulness, though he remains biased towards Christianity and Western
traditions. Outsiders might call him a Conservative, but in fact he is a Fundamentalist in that he promotes the Christian values that raised Western civilization to its peak.
One of the faces, looking to our right and called Patulcius, is the headstrong and determined side of Janus, tending to authoritarian ideals. Patulcius looks to history and upholds the traditions of
Christianity and Western civilization, and the well-being of Western nations. Patulcius sees world events as a struggle between divine and demonic
forces.
The other face—the easy-going, more open-minded, left-facing Clusivius—dislikes authority and prefers a more individualistic outlook. Clusivius looks to the future and contemplates changes. While
Christian, Clusivius takes an interest in the well-being of other civilizations as well as the Western. Clusivius tends to believe that elitist conspiracies play a major part in world events.
When possible, the complete Janus seeks to form a synthesis of the two sides when making a decision. At other times Janus allows any differences to stand without resolution. But now and again the two sides must battle one another until one side wins Janus' acceptance.

– 27 November 2020 –
Janus:
The next few months are going to play a pivotal role in the future of the United States and, to lesser extents, the West and the state of the world as a whole.
Covid lockdowns are gearing up again, and much of the country is growing restless against a disease that just isn’t as deadly as the media portrays.
Meanwhile the media is attempting to showcase Joe Biden’s victory in the November election as a fait accompli, and to paint Trump’s efforts to challenge a clearly stolen election as the desperate death throws of a would-be tyrant.
The Establishment believes that they can create reality, that nothing is real until or unless they say it’s real. And a significant portion of the population more or less accepts whatever reality the media paints for them, be it a supposedly raging and deadly pandemic, that blacks are still a horribly oppressed people in this country, or that Joe Biden won free and fair election.
The Left-Right Farce
For decades, the Establishment has advanced a transformation of the USA, and much of the rest of the world, ever leftward and towards globalism.
By maintaining a false two-party system, and by fanning cultural polarization, the system has been able to advance an agenda that suits the interests of globalists of various stripes while paying hardly more than lip service to some of the pet issues of both right and left.
The more-or-less liberal/progressive portion of the population accepts that the prevailing authorities act responsibly and for the greater good of all. They believe that the system should take care of everyone’s material needs to the extent that it’s possible, and they support a degree of social freedom so long as it fits within their progressive/egalitarian moral order. They believe that all people are inherently the same, given that the authorities enforce a state of equality to offset historical inequalities.
Leftists who, thirty years ago, opposed globalization, foreign wars, corporate power, and censorship now support them in order to to protect their precious abortions, minority-interests, and moral licentiousness from the horrors of increasingly fed-up and angry conservatives.
The good ol’ days when the Left protested globalization and foreign wars.
During the same decades, while promoting the social aims of the Left, the Establishment has maintained a false opposition within the Republican party and much of the more conservative churches to promote their economic and foreign policy goals. They usurped and twisted the ideals that heritage Americans have of individual liberty and responsibility, Christian morality, self-reliance, a strong defense, and a government ruled by the constitution as the founding fathers intended.
Through the likes of media personalities like Rush Limbaugh, Glenn Beck, and Sean Hannity, and organizations like Fox News, the Establishment has inserted the notions of hard-working immigrants, laissez faire economics, live-and-let-live morality, that wars should be fought to impose these ideals because all people are inherently the same, given that the authorities provide everyone with a level playing field.
Conservatives who once upheld traditional Christian values have increasingly set those ideals aside to protect gun ownership, corporate power, and abusive police powers from an increasingly hysterical left.
Psy-Op
Recently thrown on top of this left/right polarization is the psychological trauma of the Covid-19 psy-op, which has paralyzed the Americans in the middle with fear, or driven them to one side or the other, while radicalizing the most extreme elements on either side even further.
This is a recipe for civil war, whether by design or by incompetence.
Why might the Establishment actually welcome a civil war or insurrection of some sort?
More than any other force in the country, the globalist Establishment fears elements on the right wing that represent Old Order America: traditional Christians, nationalists, and white identitarians.
The globalist Establishment fears nothing more than white nations united against them.
Most white Americans as well as traditional Christians have grown increasingly frustrated with a system that has advanced the Leftist agenda regardless of which party controls the government. No conservative in power will take a stand for white America while very few will do more than pay lip service for the traditional Christian faith.
For better or worse, these forces of heritage America rallied around Donald Trump both in 2016 and again in 2020 because he seemed to embrace them while firmly standing up against the forces of the Left. Meanwhile, the bluster of Trump has incensed the Left into a revolutionary fervor while doing very little to advance the causes of traditional white Americans who nonetheless cling to Trump out of rage and horror at the insane Left.
Whether Trump is a sincere player or not, the Establishment obviously expended a great deal of reckless effort to steal the 2020 election from Donald Trump. For those who reject the Establishment media and are paying attention, the dramatic one-sided changes in vote tallies in favor of Biden is a smoking gun that a massive fraud changed the election outcome in key swing states. And that doesn’t even address the corruption of the electronic voting machines.
The Next Few Months
While the media pretends that Joe Biden is the president-elect, Donald Trump’s lawsuits have started to nibble away at the pretense.
At this point the question that remains to be answered is whether enough elements within the government, especially the courts, will recognize Trump’s considerable evidence of election fraud last November, which is considerably more obvious than any supposed Russian meddling in favor of Trump in 2016.
If Trump’s lawsuits are thrown out and the Establishment wins, then they will have to rule over at least half of the country who sees them as totally illegitimate. If the Establishment imposes a national Covid lockdown, they will launch a mass resistance to this tyranny that will amount to some level of insurrection.
There is much that I like about the Proud Boys, though they remain civic nationalists. I do wish them well, but their sudden rise from the ashes seems a bit suspicious….
Can the powers-that-be repress these people into submission? Probably, since few if any Republican authorities will back them up. Is this a scenario that the Establishment actually wants? Maybe. It would give them the excuse to smash the most radical elements of this burgeoning right-wing movement. And then eventually they can distract and redirect the energies of the former Trumpists into a patriotic war against China/Russia.
If Donald Trump finally wins his second term, then the left will lose what’s left of their minds, as they will see this as a coup d’ tat. Radical and organized elements of the Left will move to the next stage of the Color Revolution playbook: mass riots and political terror. If this fails to unseat Trump, and assuming the compromised military will refuse to crack down on the Leftists, then the Left will likely move to the next stage, the secession of Democratic states. If Democratic state governments embrace secession, they will launch a Balkans-style ethnic/cultural war across disputed sections of the country. If the Democrats refuse to embrace secession, then it will be a key sign that Trumpism (which is really just capitalist liberalism) wins and maybe was the goal all along.
Why might the Establishment secretly have wanted a Trump victory all along?
Because Trump has fooled the very elect. Conservative Christians set aside their faith in favor of liberal politics that seemed conservative because of blowhard rhetoric and Leftist fits.
To the extent that Trump has stood up for traditionalist policies, most of his efforts have been symbolic or rhetorical. Trump accepts political homosexuality and has done nothing to hinder the transexual movement. Trump accepts mass foreign immigration so long as it’s legal and helps business. Trump has shown very little interest in “small government.” Rather than restore US economic sovereignty, Trump has pushed the mere reform of NAFTA. Trump has accepted the Covid lockdowns and mandatory mask regulations, his supporters will accept his word on a Covid vaccine, whereas they would violently resist such efforts by the liberals. Under Trump, the US military has expanded its presence on the Russian border and in the Western Pacific against China, suggesting that he is willing to push these countries into open war. While Trump’s presidency is still preferable to a leftist egalitarian state, Trumpist conservatism is essentially 1990’s Bill Clinton liberalism.
Trump isn’t conservative or traditional.
In the medium term, a Trumpist America would allow the relatively smooth transition of the United States into a majority non-white, morally libertine, individualistic, pro-corporation, big-government state whose population is incapable of organized resistance and is more willing to embrace some form of globalist international order.
If that’s what the Establishment really wants in the United States, they must be getting incredibly desperate to employ such smoke and mirrors to neutralize or destory heritage America.
It seems more likely that, for whatever reason, at least the dominant portion of the ruling class opposes the presidency of Donald Trump. If the courts shoot down his lawsuits, heritage Americans will recognize the reality that we are on our own and live at the mercy of God.
Depending on the outcomes, the next few months will answer a lot of questions about the nature of the globalist Establishment.
I don’t have a lot to say about this debate. It was full of the usual rhetorical pap and political jabs about healthcare, jobs, crime, and the environment and a whole lot of political “gotchas.” On the whole, most of the dull content of the debate amounted to bread filler for the real meat of the leftist elite agenda to oust Trump and whatever elite he represents, which increasingly looks like the Likud Party of Israel.
