Purchase options and add-ons

Winning the Second Civil War is based on the current threat demonstrated in the 2020 Antifa/BLM Riots and current unrest including the storming of the US Capitol, exacerbated by the deep problems with the 2020 election. The book includes analysis of the history, legality, and consequences of violent protest. It explores what the founders contemplated, what has been attempted before, and how those things influence what is playing out now.
Both the Left and Right have some level of insurgency underway and it will be helpful to examine them in that light. It also requires looking at them as unique creations of our current political and cultural climates as well. Even in their extreme positions both still have considerable influence on and acceptance in their larger political movements.
Author Jim Hanson shows how the Left and its shock troops are destructive forces to our Republic. The extremists on the Left share common cause with the current path of the Democrats in a belief that America is a force for evil that must be destroyed and remade in a woke image. The extremists on the Right have elements of anti-government ideology and some do want to destroy the current systems. But they are out of step with the vast majority of conservatives who simply want to reassert the values that have always worked for this country. Winning the Second Civil War provides a path to victory to build new political institutions for a stronger Right.

Jim is President of WorldStrat an information warfare firm and previously served in US Army Special Forces.

He has now shifted his focus to the battle going on now for the soul of America. There is an ongoing effort by the activist Left to claim this country is infected with Systemic Racism and the the very core of America is rotten and must be replaced.

Jim is a leader among the many people who believe that while the country is not perfect, it does not need to be turned into a socialist "paradise" to fix it. This is not always a popular place to be, but as he says. "I've seen worse things than people shooting smears at me and calling me names."

His first book was called the Myth of White Fragility and reality checks the anti-racism handbook White Fragility by Robin DiAngelo. Then he released Winning the Second Civil War: Without Firing a Shot a plan for the counterattack to defeat wokeness. His third book is Get Based a ideology, philosophy and lifestyle guide to a stronger existence.

5.0 out of 5 stars A very pragmatic look at the cultural phenomena we face today
Reviewed in the United States on May 17, 2021
Verified Purchase
This is an extremely well-written book, looking into how and why we are facing such a cultural divide. Mr Hanson's approach is one that avoids hyperbole, and doesn't extol the 'bloody Monday' scenarios many 'culture warriors' discuss. He writes of how this cultural movement differs from ones in the past, and how we can deal with our differences without taking us down the hell-hole of armed conflict. Highly recommended reading to understand today's mindset.

4.0 out of 5 stars ...not quite 5!
Reviewed in the United States on February 12, 2022

I heard Jim Hanson on a Radio interview and really liked his Conservative outlook on the current topics of our Country, i.e. 1st & 2nd Amendments, boarders, crime, the Media, this current Administration and the lawlessness that is coming from 1600 Penn Ave etc. What caught my attention in this book was his lack of defending our former President Donald J. Trump. History "IS" showing that his Policies were the BEST and even BETTER than the Reagan era. Our Country NOW is in the worst shape and only getting worse under the current Policies...nuff said. The second alert is Mr. Hanson's sentence about welcoming ALL ESTABLISHMENT Republicans into the tent. Excuse me, but this Country is in this mess BECAUSE of the "Establishment Republicans" NOT "Politically" fighting back against the tyranny and the push to take over our very Freedom! Other than those two points I enjoyed the book very much.

5.0 out of 5 stars An author who understands counterinsurgency
Reviewed in the United States on May 28, 2021
Verified Purchase
America's second civil war pits two incompatible moral and ethical systems against each other. On the right stand those of us committed to the principles of America's founding: the marriage of individual liberty and personal responsibility resting upon a Judeo-Christian base. On the left stand neo-Marxists committed to a utopian future resting upon novel redefinitions of race, gender, justice, and many other ethical constructs.

Notwithstanding the impressions you might get from social media, most Americans have yet to choose a side. We are locked in a battle for hearts and minds.

The current advantage, however, goes to the left--thanks to its control of every major cultural institution in America today. The leftist revolution is well underway. The question is whether the right can launch an effective counterrevolution.

Jim Hanson is the right man to answer that question. His background in counterinsurgency operations and hearts-and-minds warfare is ideally suited to the task. Winning the Second Civil War outlines both the relevant strategic considerations and the nuts-and-bolts details. Anyone who appreciates the gravity of the current struggle needs to master this material before things heat up. The key to victory without firing a shot rests entirely upon winning before the first shot is fired.

4.0 out of 5 stars Good synopsis of events
Reviewed in the United States on May 25, 2021

Preordered this book after seeing the author on a podcast. It was a good overview of pertinent recent events. If you've been paying attention the last year most of the incidents that are summarized in the book will be familiar to you. In my opinion he's spot on in his analysis and the most productive path going forward. However, I think I was expecting a little more in depth explanation on some of the topics and strategies for righting the ship.
