Edited to add: Just yesterday I recorded this episode and told you that the Great Replacement Theory was starting to break out into the public consciousness. I told you it would become a topic of discussion you would not be able to avoid in the days ahead. It’s all over now. I’ve added a wide variety of links in the comments and will continue to add them. I encourage you to really dig into this story and make sure you understand it so you have a thoroughly informed view.

Welcome to Wednesday’s episode of Sallie’s Rebuilding America. There is so much going on! Let’s chat about at least some of the important happenings in the news including:

  • The Great Replacement Theory
  • Elon Musk & Twitter
  • Netflix Failing

As always, comments and discussions are welcomed and appreciated. 

Please Note: Due to changing circumstances, links mentioned in the podcast are no longer included in the post.

  1. I highly recommend you take the time to understand what the Great Replacement Theory is and sort out what you believe is true based on facts and not emotions one way or the other. You need to be ready to discuss it. It is going to become a significant topic and you are going to meet people on both sides of the issue.

    Here’s someone else’s take on what is going on with this. It’s well worth two minutes of your time to click over and read and watch the short clip.

    (I really should do an entire post about this and just keep adding to it.)

    • And just to make it very clear in case I wasn’t clear enough in the podcast, I am not telling you what to think about this topic. I am telling you I think this is going to be a big topic and you need to make sure you are ready to deal with it. Some of you might have never even heard of it before so that’s why I’m bringing it up. It’s what I do around here.

  16. I have read some of this but didn’t know this was called The Great Replacement Theory until recently. It has been weird to read that Jews hate whites and are not white. Some of this is confusing like CRT was to me at first before I understood it. My thoughts in reading all this is it seems like CRT plays some into this theory possibly? The way they have the wide open borders makes you wonder about their real motives. They do talk about getting more votes by opening the borders and now it is also to replace white people? Good grief. This whole thing is just weird….

    • Hi Kris,

      It is definitely something that takes some time to sort through. There are a lot of terms and labels that people use without them being clearly defined. “Jews” is one of those terms.

      The Great Replacement Theory is both very simple and quite complex. But like I said, people need to dig and understand it because it’s not going away.

  19. Saw this on Gab. Here’s a quote and then a link.

    One interesting point to add. The other day Gregg Phillips said on the Patel Patriot interview that there are actually 40 MILLION illegals in America. So when you read the numbers below, subtract the 40 MILLION illegals and then do the math.

    “If you asked me back in 2015, I would have estimated that five percent of the United States could be labeled within some sector of the Dissident Right. Today, I believe that number is probably closer to 40% and growing by the minute. In 2017, a Washington Post-ABC Poll indicated that 9% of Americans agreed with White Nationalist views, while 16% found the amorphous “Alt-Right” political ideologies to be either correct or at least acceptable. That poll was taken about a week after Charlottesville. At 9% of 330 million Americans, that equates to approximately 29.7 million “White Nationalists.” At 16%, that number stands at 52.8 million who find the views at least acceptable. Recognizing that such polls often skew to achieve some other result (this was an anti-Trump/anti-Charlottesville poll), that tells me the number was likely a bit higher in 2017.

    Now, after Covid lockdowns, a stolen election, a meltdown in Afghanistan, chaos at the Southern border, and an economic collapse triggered by anti-working-class policies from the White House, an anger is metastasizing. Couple all of that with the broad recognition of Critical Race Theory (CRT) indoctrination, gender dysphoria propaganda, and a host of clear, anti-White marketing – especially toward children – and the awakening is happening at speeds I never thought possible. If I am correct, given that Whites currently comprise 76.3% of the United States, which includes Hispanic-Whites (I will get into that in a moment), more than half of Whites in America – approximately 132 million – harbor some level of White Nationalist sentiment. Praise the Lord! Anecdotally, however, there is more to the story.”

    • This sounds like back to the Civil War era. Not sure that is a positive thing by the way the author writes the article. Do you think this is becoming prevalent among Christians? What are your thoughts on that angle?

      • Hi Kris,

        I shared the post because I think this author articulates what many people think, but would never say out loud. Do I know how many? No. But I know a lot of people are not okay with the list of things he shared in that post. So how does that play out in the months and years ahead?

        Another thing people need to think about are certain terms such as Nationalist, Christian Nationalist, and White Nationalist. What is a Nationalist? Is it wrong? Why or why not? What does it mean if you put Christian in front of it? What happens if you put White in front of it?

        Is it wrong for Japanese people to be Nationalists? What about Romanians? What about Hungarians? What about Brazilians? Australians? Does it bother people if Japanese or Romanian citizens wants to put their country first in their priorities? Usually not. But it very much bothers people if American citizens want to do the same thing.

        And so on. There’s lots of food for thought. Most people react to these terms, but cannot articulate a clear viewpoint.

    • I find the responses to this post on Gab troubling to say the least. People are very angry and what is coming out here is disturbing to me.

      • Hi Kris,

        People are angry and that’s why I’m sharing many links from a variety of sources, including the MSM. I want people to be aware of this topic because one way or the other it is going to explode on us.

        I’m sure some of the people commenting on Gab are there to simply stir up trouble for the platform. Others are saying what they think. I’m sharing because this topic is becoming unavoidable and someone can’t develop a solid point of view if they don’t understand the ways people are approaching it.

        • Yes, this is going to explode on us. Our response as Christians should be different. The racial hate in this country is rising and that is a recipe for disaster. Understanding it and knowing how to respond is important. I guess this is something I just became aware of recently, but I see it come to the forefront more and more as you have been saying.

  23. A lengthy Gab post by me in response to something another Gabber wrote that went semi-viral. You can click over and I’m also going to save it here.

    I’ve been a huge fan of Gab for the past year, sharing it with everyone I know.

    But the RACISM on here is outrageous, and it sickens me.

    I’m Hispanic.

    And according to comment after comment on here, that pretty much means I’m worthless. My children are replacements. Etc. Etc.

    Never mind the fact that my ancestors fought bravely for this country and the freedoms we once enjoyed.

    Yes, I stand behind free speech. And I know I can keep on scrolling, which I do.

    But a culture is being created here, and it stands to dehumanize and desensitize just as sickly as the “other side.”

    The enemy doesn’t discriminate.

    And this is why, more than ever, the Church needs to rise up in truth.

    As believers, our identity must be in Christ.

    Without Him, we are just as susceptible to deception and hatred.

    Without Him, we are just as vulnerable to identity politics and divisive tactics.

    Without Him, we lose sight of the real battle . . .

    Within.

    I pray we can keep our eyes on what is most important . .

    And hopefully teach our children to do the same. 💗

    I regabbed her post and wrote this when I did so:

    I wanted to comment on this on my own timeline rather than in the firestorm of the original thread. (I’ve interacted with Veronica @Nurturing_Connections a little bit before this re: homeschooing.)

    Veronica (if you see this) – You rightly point out that for Christians our identity is in Christ. I agree. You also point out that your ancestors fought for this country. Great. But why is it necessary to point out that you are Hispanic and not just American?

    Is it because you are proud of your heritage? Great. We can all be thankful for our ancestors.

    My ancestors have given me a great deal as well and have influenced my life in significant ways to this day. But I don’t call myself Swedish-American, Dutch-American, English-American., European-American, or White-American. I’m an American.

    I’m asking this honestly. Why is it necessary to call yourself Hispanic if you are an American and proud of it?

    Why are White/European Americans derided if we rightly point out the contributions our ancestors have made both here in America and in our ancestral homes in Europe?

    I’ve been warning my blog readers that The Great Replacement Theory is blowing up and they aren’t going to be able to escape talking about it. I think this is an example of the type of conversation I meant. I honestly believe you meant well with what you wrote, but don’t realize how it comes across to White Americans who are your brothers and sisters in Christ.

    It’s inconsistent to demand people see their identity in Christ and then claim another identity that must be respected. I don’t think you are anti-White. I just wonder if you don’t see the inconsistency of what you are demanding.

  25. “A wealthy family is attempting to implement a utopian experiment with the goal of settling 70 refugee families in the quaint French town of Callac, and while no member of the family actually lives in the town, they are willing to invest millions of euros from their fortune to make their vision a reality.

    Known as the Horizon Project, the scheme would be funded with money from the private Merci fund, which was created by Marie-France Cohen and is managed by her three sons. While the Cohen’s fund is reportedly spearheading the project, other financing would come from federal taxpayer subsidies and the local municipality.

    The Cohens have identified 75 vacant jobs in health, trade, and agriculture in the town of approximately 2,000, which they plan to fill with refugees. Their endowment fund is designed to cover the cost of relocating the refugee families to the town and providing them with jobs, but only for 10 years. After that, the town is mostly on its own, unless authorities can secure more taxpayer money for the project.”

  29. I am starting to understand this better. It is interesting the difference in reporting with Vox from the 2015 article to the 2022 article. The attitude of the second article is not enjoyable to read. Thanks for giving us this very helpful information.

    • Ok, this is interesting. I guess I haven’t looked at it this way and not sure I agree?

      To me the great replacement theory is what is happening now with the border. Replacing whites with those from other countries for “race baiting” as well as for votes in the next election. When these migrants don’t get what they are “promised” all h*ll will break loose. No longer a conspiracy theory. For any “conspiracy theory” wait six months and it will come true.
