Episode 53 — Degeneracy, Mass Shootings, and the Death of the West: Time to Leave America?

This week on The Backlash, Rebecca Hargraves, Cameron Macgregor, and Dave Reilly confront the disturbing details surrounding the deadly Coeur d’Alene firefighter ambush — a bizarre and tragic incident involving a disturbed youth involved with the “brony” subculture. Was it simply the act of a deranged individual, or something darker — a false flag designed to stigmatize rural America and revive narratives of domestic extremism?

We unpack the cultural rot underlying the shooter’s ideology — from fantasy-obsessed subcultures to the disturbing intersection between gender dysphoria and mass violence. Drawing on underreported statistics and media manipulation, we explore why incidents like these are becoming more frequent, and why the mainstream refuses to acknowledge their deeper causes.

As even the safest corners of America become targets for chaos, we ask the unavoidable question: is it time to leave? We examine the rising wave of white flight, expat migration, and dissident relocation, from Russia to rural sanctuaries. Is leaving the West a betrayal — or a moral imperative?

Plus: reflections on the Fourth of July, the meaning of independence in a decaying empire, and whether we can still reclaim and rebuild a homeland worth defending.
