 @Shadowman311 @BobsonDugnuttHB Those petty differences in no small part led to the revolts of the 19th/20th century. Religious wars and endless squabbling played no small part in the rise of secularism and then atheism. National wars in no small part sweetened the appeal of communism and liberalism, and disillusionment with nation/empire. They were the seeds of doubt that led to Europeans taking a bite of what the nice long-nosed man was offering. We don’t want to go back to any of that.
We should aim for a Global North. Russia+America+Europe and her colonies (Aus/SA). It can be a federation or a confederation, it doesn’t really matter. What matters is that Whites are on the inside, and browns are on the outside. Whatever relationship we forge with them at that point will be for our descendants to decide. We’ve got to stop the squabbling in any serious sense. If there are going to be crusades, it can’t end be like the fourth. If there’s going to be national conflict, it’s gotta be bantz on 4chan. Letting us fight amongst ourselves is basically how the jews got as far as they did. 
 That's the ideal but reality comes with compromise 
 Don't know if that's even ideal, highly doubt it's remotely possible. Even if you can exclude the jews, expect lots of shabbos, shitlib, and communist infiltration. I think I'm just never going to trust a powerful institution again (unless it's a dictatorship run by Giga-Hitler, but I don't think the Russians would be on board with that).
