Placed next to each other, they form a picture \u2013 of what the United States currently is, a country that has lost its bearings. JD Vance says Germany is destroying itself. It is taking in millions who do not belong there, from cultures that are incompatible with its own. These are fascist words, things that are none of Vance\u2019s business. For Vance, migration is an enemy that must be confronted, that must be repelled. The sentence fits into a language that has become everyday speech for many in America.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-video alignwide\"><video height=\"360\" style=\"aspect-ratio: 640 \/ 360;\" width=\"640\" controls src=\"https:\/\/kaizen-blog.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/kaizvancgerm.mp4\"><\/video><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:25px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In Florida, there is a law. It allows someone to drive a car into a crowd of people, for example demonstrators, if they feel surrounded. Not in an exceptional situation that hardly ever occurs. But as a right one possesses. The state is saying: You decide. You decide. Violence becomes an option one can choose. Ron DeSantis\u2019 explanation is simple and cheap, \u201cNo one has to sit there like a helpless sitting duck.\u201d In Florida, he says, one has the right to defend oneself. But against what? Against people demonstrating for democracy? What kind of logic is that. Decide in seconds over the lives of others, without anyone later being able to tell you that you decided wrongly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-video alignwide\"><video height=\"270\" style=\"aspect-ratio: 490 \/ 270;\" width=\"490\" controls src=\"https:\/\/kaizen-blog.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/kaizeninvestigat9.mp4\"><\/video><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">DeSantis: \u201cYou don\u2019t have to sit there and just be a sitting duck.

In Florida, you have the right to DEFEND yourself.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">And above it all lies something that is no longer politics, but fanatical belief. Paula White, the spiritual advisor, head of Trump\u2019s faith office, says: Whoever says no to Trump says no to God. This is not an exaggeration, it is simply sick. Terror becomes a holy cause. Dissent is no longer legitimate, it is sin. The president no longer stands under the criticism of the people, he stands above it, because he stands under God.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-video alignwide\"><video height=\"540\" style=\"aspect-ratio: 540 \/ 540;\" width=\"540\" controls src=\"https:\/\/kaizen-blog.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/godtrmpaula.mp4\"><\/video><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Trumps spirituelle Beraterin Paula White:<\/strong> <strong>Trump\u2019s spiritual advisor Paula White: \u201cTo say no to President Trump would be saying no to God.\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Trump himself does not have to say any of this.

Harsh lighting, no privacy, people behind bars without conviction, often sick, exhausted, humiliated. This is state organized deterrence. Anyone who sees these images understands: This is not about order, it is about hardness as a message.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Has H\u00f6cke not been dreaming for years of exactly such deportation detention facilities \u2013 openly, bluntly, at least since 2018? What is reality in the United States is being traded by the AfD as a vision of the future. These images are therefore more than documentation. They are a warning of where politics leads when dehumanization becomes a tool and cruelty a method, if one does not resist it.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A current example: In a remote part of Arkansas, a small group of young white nationalists is trying to build something they believe to be permanent. The project is called \u201cReturn to the Land.\u201d It refers to a private community open only to people with so called European heritage. The claim is clear. The implementation is not.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-video alignwide\"><video height=\"852\" style=\"aspect-ratio: 480 \/ 852;\" width=\"480\" controls src=\"https:\/\/kaizen-blog.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/orlando-145.mp4\"><\/video><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cPure racism \u2013 anyone who supports this should examine their conscience.

A simple question, seemingly. At first he appears confident. Europeans, he says. Then the follow up. Greeks. Yes, European. People from the Caucasus. No, not European. The interviewer points out that the term \u201cwhite\u201d was historically located precisely there. Orwoll hesitates. He begins talking about earlier uses of the term, about legal definitions, about history. In the end, he concedes that Italians and Irish were always considered white for legal reasons. Any certainty is long gone at that point.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image alignwide size-full\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"640\" height=\"354\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/kaizen-blog.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/kaizennewsday-2025-12-26T172259.245.webp?resize=640%2C354&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-24648\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/kaizen-blog.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/kaizennewsday-2025-12-26T172259.245.webp?w=905&amp;ssl=1 905w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/kaizen-blog.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/kaizennewsday-2025-12-26T172259.245.webp?resize=18%2C10&amp;ssl=1 18w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/kaizen-blog.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/kaizennewsday-2025-12-26T172259.245.webp?resize=300%2C166&amp;ssl=1 300w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/kaizen-blog.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/kaizennewsday-2025-12-26T172259.245.webp?resize=768%2C424&amp;ssl=1 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\"><strong>Eric Orwoll<\/strong><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:25px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Later, Orwoll talks about the admissions process. Sometimes, he says, everything goes smoothly. And then, almost as an aside, a sentence comes up: the wife is Colombian. That does not align with the values of the community. The interviewer presses further. What if the Colombian wife is of entirely Spanish descent. Orwoll thinks. Then he says: Then it would probably be fine. A man who wants to build an exclusively white place cannot say who belongs. He decides case by case. Exactly as it has always been in the United States.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image alignwide size-full\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"640\" height=\"354\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/kaizen-blog.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/kaizennewsday-2025-12-26T171343.496.webp?resize=640%2C354&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-24647\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/kaizen-blog.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/kaizennewsday-2025-12-26T171343.496.webp?w=905&amp;ssl=1 905w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/kaizen-blog.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/kaizennewsday-2025-12-26T171343.496.webp?resize=18%2C10&amp;ssl=1 18w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/kaizen-blog.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/kaizennewsday-2025-12-26T171343.496.webp?resize=300%2C166&amp;ssl=1 300w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/kaizen-blog.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/kaizennewsday-2025-12-26T171343.496.webp?resize=768%2C424&amp;ssl=1 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The office of the Republican Attorney General of Arkansas, Tim Griffin, has found no indications in a preliminary review that Return to the Land, a private membership association restricted exclusively to whites in the Ozarks, is breaking the law.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Griffin had previously suggested that the community was engaging in \u201cracial discrimination\u201d against non whites. Inquiries to his office went unanswered. We would have liked to know how this change of position came about.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The term Orwoll and his associates invoke does not come from biology or genetics, but from an aesthetic judgment of the late 18th century. The German anatomist Johann Friedrich Blumenbach coined it after comparing skulls from around the world. He called Europeans \u201cCaucasian\u201d because he considered the skull of a woman from Georgia to be particularly beautiful. From this, he developed an order of humanity that he himself later described as arbitrary. The differences, he wrote, were gradual. There were no clear boundaries. The term survived nonetheless. It migrated from anatomy into courts, into legal codes, into immigration authorities. And there it became useful.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The Caucasus mountains are located in Central Asia. The people who live there \u2013 Armenians, Georgians, Azerbaijanis, Chechens \u2013 would not be accepted in Orwoll\u2019s settlement. The term he relies on excludes precisely those from whom it takes its name. These contradictions are not a mistake. They are the system. In the 19th century, Irish immigrants in the United States were considered inferior. Caricatures portrayed them as animal like. Job advertisements openly excluded them. Legally they were white, socially they were not. They could become citizens, but they were considered a problem. Only when they distanced themselves from the black population and became politically useful did their status change. Italian immigrants experienced something similar. In the southern states, they were pushed into the same jobs as black workers. Their belonging was publicly questioned. In 1891, eleven of them were lynched in New Orleans after being acquitted. The reaction of many newspapers was muted. Some openly questioned whether these men deserved the same protection as other whites.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-video alignwide\"><video height=\"360\" style=\"aspect-ratio: 640 \/ 360;\" width=\"640\" controls src=\"https:\/\/kaizen-blog.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/vanceappollo.mp4\"><\/video><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cYou don\u2019t have to apologize for being white anymore\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Whiteness was not a condition. It was an outcome. After World War II, access opened to suburbs, to state backed loans, to schools. Black veterans were excluded. The children of the Irish and Italians moved in. This is how belonging was produced. Not through origin, but through position. The absurdity of this system is particularly evident in the so called one drop rule. A single ancestor of African descent was enough to classify someone legally as black. Virginia\u2019s 1924 law demanded absolute purity. There was one exception. Descendants of Pocahontas. Too many influential families would otherwise have excluded themselves. Purity was negotiable when it affected the right people.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image alignwide size-full\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"640\" height=\"354\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/kaizen-blog.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/batch_kaizennewsday-2025-12-26T044227.817.webp?resize=640%2C354&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-24608\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/kaizen-blog.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/batch_kaizennewsday-2025-12-26T044227.817.webp?w=905&amp;ssl=1 905w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/kaizen-blog.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/batch_kaizennewsday-2025-12-26T044227.817.webp?resize=18%2C10&amp;ssl=1 18w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/kaizen-blog.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/batch_kaizennewsday-2025-12-26T044227.817.webp?resize=300%2C166&amp;ssl=1 300w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/kaizen-blog.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/batch_kaizennewsday-2025-12-26T044227.817.webp?resize=768%2C424&amp;ssl=1 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Many people, journalists and organizations are fighting racism in America \u2013 in the media they are shadows, on the streets the last bastion. <\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Courts turned this into theater. Testimony was evaluated based on hair. People lost their right to speak because an expert interpreted a curl as proof. Verdicts did not hinge on act or guilt, but on classifications that could shift at any time. Back to Arkansas. There, something permanent is now supposed to be built. A community that wants to explain to its children where they come from and why they belong. But the foundation consists of terms that were never stable. The Germans whom Benjamin Franklin once described as dark and unsuitable are today considered the embodiment of white normality. Jews, who were still seen as foreign in the early 20th century, first became \u201cwhite ethnics\u201d and then simply white. Finns were classified as Mongolian in a Minnesota court in 1908. Today, they no longer appear separately in any statistics.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Who belongs was never a question of origin. It was always a question of order. The people of \u201cReturn to the Land\u201d believe they are building something lasting. In truth, they are building on a concept that has shifted with every generation. The boundaries they draw today will be explained, relativized or discarded tomorrow. Not because genes change, but because power relations change.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-video alignwide\"><video height=\"270\" style=\"aspect-ratio: 480 \/ 270;\" width=\"480\" controls src=\"https:\/\/kaizen-blog.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/kaizeninvestigat9b.mp4\"><\/video><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:25px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Anyone who sees this project as merely an exception misses the history behind it. This is not about Arkansas. It is about a country that repeatedly reinvents its categories \u2013 and each time claims they are natural. And that is exactly why the question \u201cWho is white?\u201d fails again and again. What emerges when one puts all of this together? A climate that revives the darkest days of the past. In which the citizen is not protected from violence, but is meant to become its warrior. In which migration no longer appears as a problem to be solved, but as a threat that justifies hardness. And hardness is no longer understood as something heavy, applied only when nothing else remains, but as a good virtue one is expected to display. And religious language removes the final barrier, because it renders doubt immoral.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-video alignwide\"><video height=\"852\" style=\"aspect-ratio: 480 \/ 852;\" width=\"480\" controls src=\"https:\/\/kaizen-blog.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/kaizeninvestigat4.mp4\"><\/video><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cCreative and nonviolent resistance on December 25, 2025 is the right path\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This is not coincidence, but a line.
