In the course of the ongoing conversation about America’s prospects over at Bill Vallicella’s website, Bill mentioned two of the various types of civil wars (in my view, there are at least three). Having written an article about exactly that at American Greatness four years ago, in the runup to the last election, I posted a link to the article in Bill’s comment-thread. It seems relevant enough today that I’ll take the opportunity to repost it here as well.

In case you are interested, I’ve just written a comment on one of your comments over at the Orthosphere.
Thank you, Professor. You make an important distinction between the two senses of “high ground”: postural and tactical. I’ve given up on the former, but we should seize the latter as vigorously as we can.
