Author Jeff Sharlet has spent years interviewing conservatives and found many unassuming Americans are ready and eager for violence against their political enemies.
Sharlet’s latest book, The Undertow: Scenes from a Slow Civil War, is the result of more than a dozen years of reporting on the religious right, compiling numerous interviews conducted throughout the Midwest and Great Plains, and he’s more worried than ever about the possibility of civil war, reported The Guardian.
“I’ve been writing about the right for a long time,” he told the newspaper. “I’m always interested in the margins of things that tell us about what’s happening at the center. An undertow is a metaphor for that, for the force that’s been pulling us to this place for a long time. If you’d asked me 10 years ago if I ever thought another civil war would be possible in the United States, I would have said no. But to think so [now] is to not understand that the right in America is as dangerous as it is.”
He cited a “nice-looking” family he met near Eau Claire, Wisconsin, who seemed like “ordinary” conservatives, as the newspaper described them, but harbored bloodthirsty fantasies rooted in extreme conservative politics.
“[The father said] he had a ‘Let’s go Brandon’ sticker because he didn’t want to swear around his son,” Sharlet said. “They’re a middle-class dad and mom. They were always gun people, but not a lot of guns. Now they’re up to 36, now they are arming up. The father had always been anti-abortion. But now it was like a dream had moved into his and his wife’s mind. He described, in incredibly violent detail, the process of abortion. Then he described, in incredibly violent detail, the punishment he thought he and others were going to give to abortion doctors. They were ready for executions.“
“It’s astonishing there hasn’t been more violence,” Sharlet added. “I think we’ve had a shield from that violence for a long time and now that shield … I sound like Jerry Falwell saying the hand of God is being removed from America.”

first day as a second century warlord i have my men tie branches to their horses’ tails to stir up dust and make it look like there’s a lot of us but i forget it just rained so there isn’t any dust and the enemy can clearly see there’s like twenty of us all spread out in a line

hi! i'm opening up commissions to pay some medical bills i have and to feed myself! these probably wont be open forever since i do have a job, but starting is slow due to covid. dont wanna put pressure on my brother blah blah blah issues
i can draw whatever you'd like! just no hate speech or straight porn. backgrounds, extra characters, etc. will cost more, but it can be discussed based on what the extra stuff is.
headshots are 20$, halfbody is 30$, and fullbody is 40$! if things are simpler (like kirby or pikachu simple) the price will be cheaper!
i can only take payment over paypal and will only start working after im paid in full. i will take around 1-2 weeks to complete the art.
please feel free to message me for any questions or if you want to commission me! if you can't commission me (or just don't want to) please reblog this post to spread it! thank you for your time :)
